Remark 22.13.6. Let $R$ be a ring. Let $A$ be a differential graded $R$-algebra. Let $M$ be a right differential graded $A$-module. Let $N^\bullet $ be a complex of $R$-modules. The constructions above produce a left differential graded $A$-module $\mathop{\mathrm{Hom}}\nolimits (M, N^\bullet )$ and then a right differential graded $A$-module $\mathop{\mathrm{Hom}}\nolimits (\mathop{\mathrm{Hom}}\nolimits (M, N^\bullet ), N^\bullet )$. We claim there is an evaluation map

\[ ev : M \longrightarrow \mathop{\mathrm{Hom}}\nolimits (\mathop{\mathrm{Hom}}\nolimits (M, N^\bullet ), N^\bullet ) \]

in the category of right differential graded $A$-modules. To define it, by Lemma 22.13.2 it suffices to construct an $A$-bilinear pairing

\[ M \times \mathop{\mathrm{Hom}}\nolimits (M, N^\bullet ) \longrightarrow N^\bullet \]

compatible with grading and differentials. For this we take

\[ (x, f) \longmapsto (-1)^{\deg (x)\deg (f)}f(x) \]

We leave it to the reader to verify this is compatible with grading, differentials, and $A$-bilinear. The map $ev$ on underlying complexes of $R$-modules is More on Algebra, Item (17).
