If $A+A^t=I$ and $\lambda$ eigenvalue of $A$ then $\lambda=\frac{1}{2}+$ $i\alpha$

Will really appreciate your help with the below question.

I fount that if and $\lambda$ eigenvalue of $A$ then $(1-\lambda)$ is eigenvalue of $A^t$ with the same eigenvectors.

Also if $A=A^t$ then $\lambda=1/2$. I don't know how to proceed (I want to solve it without defining the standard inner product over V, as it was solved originally)

attached is my question below

I understand the answer using inner product, I was wondering if there is another solution I could think of because inner product it not the first thing that came to my mind.
