I need help proving a theorem!!!



Thm: Let G be a group and let H be a subgroup of G. Define N(H)=(x
exists in G such that xHx^-1=H). Prove that N(H), called the
normalizer of H, is a subgroup of G.

The only ways I have learned to show that a group is a subgroup under
another group is using the 1-step, 2-step, or finite subgroup tests.
Am I supposed to be using one of these tests to prove this? If so, I
do not know how to use these for this proof. Can anyone possibly help
me with this???
