Let A be any non-empty set. Then, prove that the identity function on set A is a bijection.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

An identity function, also called an identity relation is a function that always returns the value
that was used as its argument,
That is, when f is the identity function, the equality
`f(X) = X` is true for all values of `X`
Similarly if M is a set, the identity function f on M is
defined to be a function with M as its domain and codomain, satisfying
`f(X) = X` for all elements `X `
Thus,the identity function on M is clearly an injective function
as well as a surjective function, so it is bijective
