Among other complexities in math, there are the hyperbolic functions. The hyperbolic functions are defined in terms of ex and e-x. ex - e-x sinh(x) = ------------ 2
ex + e-x cosh(x) = ------------ 2
sinh(x) ex - e-x tanh(x) = ------- = ---------- cosh(x) ex + e-x
coth(x) = 1/ tanh(x)
csch(x) = 1/ sinh(x)
sech(x) = 1/ cosh(x)
Properties
It is easy to prove that cosh(-x) = cosh(x)
sinh(-x) = - sinh(x)
tanh(-x) = - tanh(x)
cosh(x) > 0
cosh(x) + sinh(x) = ex
cosh(x) - sinh(x) = e-x > 0
cosh2(x) - sinh2(x) = 1
cosh(x) = + sqrt( 1 + sinh2(x) ) >= 1
1 - tanh2(x) = 1/cosh2(x)
1 cosh(x) = ------------------ sqrt(1 - tanh2(x))
tanh(x) sinh(x) = ------------------- sqrt(1 - tanh2(x))

I've been studying this since this morning and I was right; it is obvious.

Well, Faldage, it's just that I'm mathfully-challenged by happy choice, thank ya, thank ya very much.

Juan, with those two, sometimes it's best to just leave them to their codgering. Signed, your equally-challenged friend
