Conjugate by a projective transformation sending to and to . A matrix representing the conjugated transformation must have zero diagonal, since its first column represents and its second represents . Therefore it has the formIts square is , a nonzero scalar matrix, which induces the identity on the projective line. Conjugating back provesFor the requested explicit involution, takeMore generally works whenever .
