State the path lifting and homotopy lifting lemmas for covering maps. Suppose that XX is path connected and locally path connected, that p1:Y1Xp_{1}: Y_{1} \rightarrow X and p2:Y2Xp_{2}: Y_{2} \rightarrow X are covering maps, and that Y1Y_{1} and Y2Y_{2} are simply connected. Using the lemmas you have stated, but without assuming the correspondence between covering spaces and subgroups of π1\pi_{1}, prove that Y1Y_{1} is homeomorphic to Y2Y_{2}.
