How do I show 7.29? Could you explain this in great detail? Thank you!

Definition. A function f : X → Y is a homeomorphism if and only if f is a continu-
ous bijection and the inverse map f-1 : Y → X is also continuous.
Definition. Two topological spaces, X and Y, are homeomorphic or topologically
equivalent if and only if there exists a homeomorphism f : X → Y.
Theorem 7.29. Suppose f : X → Y is a continuous bijection where X is compact and
Y is Hausdorff. Then f is a homeomorphism.
