i
The strong law of large numbers gives
μ​n​=n1​i=1∑n​h(Xi​)⟶Eθ0​​[h(X)]=μ(θ0​)almost surely.​
(1)
A continuous one-to-one real function is strictly monotone and has a continuous inverse on its image. Hence
θn​=μ−1(μ​n​)​
(2)
whenever μ​n​ lies in that image; an arbitrary extension outside the image handles the remaining finite-sample values. The continuous mapping theorem gives θn​→θ0​ almost surely, so this is a consistent estimator.
