Problem

Let TT be a linear operator on the finite-dimensional space VV, and let RR be the range of TT. (a) Prove that RR has a complementary TT-invariant subspace if and only if RR is independent of the null space NN of TT. (b) If RR and NN are independent, prove that NN is the unique TT-invariant subspace complementary to RR.
