M1 * M2 commutes_with M2

A1: ( width M1 = n & width M2 = n ) by MATRIX_0:24;
A2: ( len M1 = n & len M2 = n ) by MATRIX_0:24;
assume M1 commutes_with M2 ; :: thesis: M1 * M2 commutes_with M2
then (M1 * M2) * M2 = M2 * (M1 * M2) by A1, A2, MATRIX_3:33;
hence M1 * M2 commutes_with M2 ; :: thesis: verum
