Nov 10, 2014 at 16:55 comment added user63181 If you mean by "it's the identity on $A$" that the map $i: A\to i(A),\; x\mapsto x$ is the identity then it's right.
Nov 10, 2014 at 16:52 comment added Lemon Okay I understand that it isn't the identity on $B$, but it is identity on $A$ right?
Nov 10, 2014 at 16:50 comment added user63181 $i$ is surjective if $\forall b\in B$ there's $a\in A$ such that $i(a)=b$. Now take $b\in B-A$ to see that $i$ isn't surjective if $B\ne A$.
Nov 10, 2014 at 16:47 comment added Lemon I mean $i(A) = A$.
Nov 10, 2014 at 16:46 comment added user63181 What do you mean by surjective with $A$?
Nov 10, 2014 at 16:45 comment added Lemon But it is surjective with $A$.
