Show that $\widehat{\operatorname{Cov}(\hat{\mu},Z_i)}$ is always zero even $\operatorname{C...

I will state the question first then my work. Q: We have a regression model, $Y_i=\beta_0+\beta_1X_i+\mu_i$ where $\operatorname{Cov}(\mu_i,X_i)=0$ is not guaranteed. Suppose that $Z_i$ is an instrume …
