Some hermitian operators relations

How can I formally demonstrate this relations with hermitian operators?(A^{\dagger})^{\dagger}=A
(AB)^{\dagger}=B^{\dagger}A^{\dagger}
\langle x|A^{\dagger}y \rangle=\langle y|Ax \rangle ^*
If \ A \ is \ hermitian \ and \ invertible, \ then \ A^{-1} \ is \ hermitian

I've tried to prove them taking the definition of hermitian operator or/and considering matrices while operating, but I want something more formal.

Thanks

how about using
<br /> AA^{-1}= \mathbb{I}<br />
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
