 There is also the combined case where you have an equivalence where the natural transformations are related in the sense of above - this is called an adjoint equivalence. There is also the combined case where you have an equivalence where the natural transformations are related in the sense of above - this is called an adjoint equivalence.

 +Say you're given an arrow $f$ from or to the images of one of the functors (in either ${\mathrm{Hom}}(FX,Y)$ or ${\mathrm{Hom}}(X,GY)$). We can now pre- or post-compose with arrows formed from $\eta$ and $\epsilon$, use the functors on arrows and thus algebraically find an image of $f$ in the other category.
