Useful Relations
Odd and even functions:
Hence:
It can be seen that cosh x and sech x are even functions; the others are odd functions.
Hyperbolic sine and cosine satisfy the identity
which is similar to the Pythagorean trigonometric identity. One also has
for the other functions.
The hyperbolic tangent is the solution to the nonlinear boundary value problem:
It can be shown that the area under the curve of cosh (x) is always equal to the arc length:
Sums of arguments:
Sum and difference of cosh and sinh:

Famous quotes containing the word relations:
“Happy will that house be in which the relations are formed from character; after the highest, and not after the lowest order; the house in which character marries, and not confusion and a miscellany of unavowable motives.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
