Start with the given identity: cosh(2x) = cosh²(x) + sinh²(x). This is a fundamental hyperbolic trigonometric identity.
Recall the relationship between cosh²(x) and sinh²(x): cosh²(x) - sinh²(x) = 1. This is another key hyperbolic identity that will be useful.
Rearrange the first identity to isolate cosh²(x) and sinh²(x). Substitute sinh²(x) using the second identity: sinh²(x) = cosh²(x) - 1.
Plug this substitution into the original identity: cosh(2x) = cosh²(x) + (cosh²(x) - 1). Simplify the expression to get cosh(2x) = 2cosh²(x) - 1.
Rearrange the simplified expression to solve for cosh²(x): cosh²(x) = (cosh(2x) + 1)/2. Similarly, use the original identity to isolate sinh²(x): sinh²(x) = (cosh(2x) - 1)/2.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Hyperbolic Functions

Hyperbolic functions, such as sinh(x) and cosh(x), are analogs of the trigonometric functions but are based on hyperbolas instead of circles. They are defined as sinh(x) = (e^x - e^(-x))/2 and cosh(x) = (e^x + e^(-x))/2. Understanding these functions is crucial for manipulating identities involving them.

Hyperbolic Identities

Hyperbolic identities are equations that hold true for hyperbolic functions, similar to trigonometric identities. The identity cosh(2x) = cosh²(x) + sinh²(x) is a fundamental relationship that can be used to derive other identities. Familiarity with these identities is essential for proving related statements.
