But from Chapter 5, Problem 6,

cosh^2 θ−sinh^2 θ= 1 ,

hence cos^2 jθ+sin^2 jθ=^1

Problem 2. Verify that sinj 2 A=2sinjAcosjA.

Fromequation(6),writing2Aforθ,sinj 2 A=jsinh2A,
and from Chapter 5, Table 5.1, page 45, sinh2A=
2sinhAcoshA.

Hence, sinj^2 A= j(2sinhAcoshA)

But, sinhA=^12 (eA−e−A)and coshA=^12 (eA+e−A)

Hence, sinj 2 A=j 2

16.2 Hyperbolic identities

From Chapter 5, coshθ=^12 (eθ+e−θ)
Substitutingjθforθgives:
coshjθ=^12 (ejθ+e−jθ)=cosθ,from equation (3),

i.e. coshjθ=cosθ (7)

Similarly, from Chapter 5,

sinhθ=^12 (eθ−e−θ)

Substitutingjθforθgives:
sinhjθ=^12 (ejθ−e−jθ)=jsinθ, from equation (4).

Hence sinhjθ=jsinθ (8)

tanjθ=

sinjθ
coshjθ
From equations (5) and (6),
sinjθ
cosjθ

=

jsinhθ
coshθ

=jtanhθ

Hence tanjθ=jtanhθ (9)

Similarly, tanhjθ=

sinhjθ
coshjθ
From equations (7) and (8),
sinhjθ
coshjθ

=

jsinθ
cosθ

=jtanθ

Hence tanhjθ=jtanθ (10)

Two methods are commonly used to verify hyperbolic
identities. These are (a) by substitutingjθ(andjφ)in
the corresponding trigonometric identity and using the
relationships given in equations (5) to (10) (see Prob-
lems 3 to 5) and (b) by applying Osborne’s rule given
in Chapter 5, page 45.

Problem 3. By writing jAforθin cot^2 θ+ 1 =
cosec^2 θ, determine the corresponding hyperbolic
identity.

Substituting jAforθgives:

cot^2 jA+ 1 =cosec^2 jA,

i.e. cos
