Cardinality of Finite Vector Space

Theorem
Let $V$ be a $K$-vector space.

Let $K$ be finite.

Let the dimension of $V$ be finite.

Then:


 * $\size V = \size K^{\map \dim V}$

Proof
By Isomorphism from R^n via n-Term Sequence, $V$ is isomorphic to the $K$-vector space $K^{\map \dim V}$.

Thus:


 * $\size V = \size {K^{\map \dim V} }$

By Cardinality of Cartesian Space:
 * $\size {K^{\map \dim V} } = \size K^{\map \dim V}$

Thus:


 * $\size V = \size K^{\map \dim V}$
