It is easier to dig this if you imagine a reflection, with the focusing done by a lens rather than a mirror; all the geometric relations are unchanged. The first relation simply arises from similar triangles; the triangle described by the lens center and the object will be similar to that described by the lens center and the image because some rays go through the lens center. But I don’t know of a “proof” for the second relation; it is simply a definition of how a lens works.
