As A and B are invertible matrices A1,B1 both exist, Also, for every positive integer, An  andBn are invertible .
Suppose (AB)n=AnBn holds three consecutive positive integer m, m + 1 and m + 2. We have (AB)m=AmBm  ………………..(1)
 (AB)m+1=Am+1Bm+1                           (2)
And  (AB)m+2=Am+2Bm+2                           (3)
From (2), we have
Am+1Bm+1=(AB) m+1=(AB)m(AB) AmABmB=AmBmAB

[using (1)]
Since Am and B are invertible matrices
ABm=BmA…………………(4)
Similarly, using (2) and(3) we can show that
ABm+1=Bm+1A………………………..(5)
We have  (AB)Bm=ABm+1=Bm+1A
[using (5)]
=B(BmA)=B(ABm)=(BA)Bm
[Using (4)]
Thus,  (AB)Bm=(BA)Bm
As Bm is an invertible matrix, we can cancel Bm from both the sides to obtain AB  BAA1BA=B   and  B1AB=A  etc.,
