Can someone tell me if I am headed in the right direction with my proof?

one sec while I type it up

Suppose A is a set. Show that A is the only relation on A that is both an equivalence relation and also a function from A to A. What I am thinking is that to show this I have to use contradiction. If you use any other relation from A to A then you will not have a function between A to A because element a_n at the end will be paired with an element a_(n-1)

Show that i_A ***

I'm not sure if this is right. It doesn't feel very rigorous

OpenStudy (anonymous):

also i_A is the identity relation
