∗22 Prove the “if” part (the part not proved in class) of Theorem S.28.
∗23 Suppose that f is a continuous, one-to-one correspondence from the compact metric space X to the metric space Y (that is, domain(f ) = X, range(f ) = Y). Show that f -1 is a function, and that it also is continuous. (In this case, f and f -1 are called homeomorphisms and the spaces X and Y are said to be homeomorphic.)
