Hello wonderful mathematics people, this is Anna Cox from Kellogg community college
hyperbolic functions are formed by taking a combination of the two exponential functions e to the x and e to the negative x
recall that an even function is f(-x) equaling f(x) or it's symmetric about the y-axis. An odd function
f(- x) equals
the negative of f(x) is symmetric about the origin
so every function that is defined on an interval centered at the origin can be rewritten
in a unique way as the sum of an even function and an odd function
so we can think of f(x) equaling f(x) plus f(-x) divided by two which was even
plus f(x) minus f(-x) divided by two
which would be odd
so e to the x, we can think of as e to the x plus e to the negative x divided by two plus
e to the x minus e to the negative x divided by two. And these are actually going to be definitions the hyperbolic cosine is
defined to be, e to the x plus e to the negative x all over two
where is the hyperbolic sine is defined to be e to the x minus e to the negative x all over two
so we're gonna have some identities
the hyperbolic cosine squared x minus the hyperbolic sine squared x is gonna equal one. The proof of this
if we have e to the x plus e to the negative x all divided by two squared
minus e to the x minus e to the negative x divided by two squared
that should equal one
so if we distribute we'd get e to the 2x plus two e to the x e to the negative x plus
e to the -2x all over four minus, if we distribute the next one
and then we realize they're both over the common denominator so we're gonna distribute this
negative through and combine our like terms
we also know that e to the x times e to the negative x when we have the same bases we're gonna add the exponent
so we're gonna get e to the zero and anything to the zero is one
so the e to the 2x and the negative e to the 2x are gonna cancel. Two plus two is gonna give us four and
e to the -2x and minus e to the -2x are gonna cancel, so four over four
which equals one. We just proved that identity
other identities that are true that you could prove in similar fashion
are hyperbolic sine of 2x is two hyperbolic sine x hyperbolic cosine x
hyperbolic cosine of 2x is hyperbolic cosine squared x plus hyperbolic sine squared x
hyperbolic cosine squared x equals hyperbolic cosine of 2x plus one all over two
hyperbolic sine squared of x equals hyperbolic cosine of 2x minus one over two
hyperbolic tangent squared x equals one minus hyperbolic secant squared x
hyperbolic cotangent squared x equals one plus
hyperbolic cosecant squared x
we also know that hyperbolic tangent of x is just gonna be hyperbolic sine over hyperbolic cosine or e to the
x minus e to the negative x over e to the x plus e to the negative x
the inverse functions occur just like in traditional trig, so the hyperbolic
cotangent is just gonna be the reciprocal function of the hyperbolic tangent
hyperbolic secant is going to be the reciprocal of hyperbolic cosine
hyperbolic cosecant is gonna be the reciprocal of hyperbolic sine
so the next thing we're gonna do is we're gonna look at the derivatives of these hyperbolic functions
if we have a derivative of hyperbolic sine, we could think of that as e to the x minus e to the
negative x over two, because by definition that is what hyperbolic sign is
so we're gonna split that up and bring out the one half cause it's a constant so it
can come in and out of the derivative at will. The derivative of e to the x is
just gonna be e to the x. And the derivative of e to the negative x is negative
e to the negative x and the negative of the negative is gonna make that turn into a positive
now we have e to the x plus e to the negative x over two and that's really just hyperbolic cosine by definition
the derivative of hyperbolic cosine we're gonna find the similar fashion
we're gonna end up with one half e to the x minus e to the negative x, so that's gonna be hyperbolic sine
when we do hyperbolic tangent think of that as sine divided, hyperbolic sine divided by hyperbolic cosine
so the derivative of hyperbolic sine times the cosine, hyperbolic cosine minus
the derivative of hyperbolic cosine times the sine all over hyperbolic cosine
squared. That was a hyperbolic sine. Remember we're using the quotient rule here
so the derivative of hyperbolic sine we just found a minute ago was hyperbolic cosine
derivative of hyperbolic cosine was hyperbolic sine
we developed a formula of hyperbolic cosine squared minus hyperbolic sine squared is really just one
one over hyperbolic cosine squared is hyperbolic secant squared
we can do, we have the chain rule for these also so if we're doing hyperbolic sine of some function u
it's really just gonna be hyperbolic cosine u du dx. This is true for all six of them
if we went ahead and did hyperbolic cotangent, hyperbolic secant, and the hyperbolic cosecant we would find
that these are very similar to what we've seen in our regular trig functions
with things like negatives sometimes
um we need restrict the domain make them all one the one
so we have identities of the inverse of hyperbolic secant x is equal to the inverse of hyperbolic cosine of one over x
hyperbolic cosecant inverse of x, the inverse function of hyperbolic
cosecant of x equals the inverse function of hyperbolic sine of one over x
etcetera. We can show that y equal the inverse of hyperbolic cosine x
so if I take hyperbolic cosine of each side I'd get hyperbolic cosine of y equaling x
now if we take the derivative d dx, we'd get hyperbolic sine y dy dx equaling one. If we divide by hyperbolic sine y
we'd get one over hyperbolic sine y. Now we have an identity that says hyperbolic cosine squared y
minus hyperbolic sine squared y equal one
so we could solve this for hyperbolic sine y. If we have hyperbolic sine y, we'd get
that equaling the square root of hyperbolic cosine squared y minus one
well if you look at the original, we had y equaling hyperbolic cosine y equaling the inverse function of hyperbolic cosine
of x or x is just hyperbolic cosine of y. So right here is hyperbolic cosine of y that's squared
so instead of hyperbolic cosine y we're gonna stick in x squared
so one over
hyperbolic sine y, hyperbolic sine y is just really square root of x squared minus one
so if we have y equaling
the inverse of hyperbolic cosine x dy dx is just one divided by square root of x squared minus one
we're gonna do the same thing for hyperbolic, the inverse function of hyperbolic sine x
so we get hyperbolic sine of y equaling x. Taking the derivative of each side hyperbolic cosine y of dy dx equaling one
dy dx would be one over hyperbolic cosine of y
we have this identity that says hyperbolic cosine squared y minus hyperbolic sine squared y equal. If we solve
for hyperbolic cosine of y, because that's what's down here in the denominator
we'd see that that's just square root a one plus hyperbolic sine squared y
while hyperbolic sine y was x, so that's just one divided by square root of one plus x squared
if we look at an example, say we're given hyperbolic cosine of x equaling thirteen fifths where x is greater than zero
so we know that the hyperbolic secant functions just gonna be the reciprocal
so five thirteenths
we know that hyperbolic cosine squared x minus hyperbolic sine squared x is one
so if we put and thirteen fifths squared minus one to get our hyperbolic
sine squared x. We can solve and get that as twelve fifths. So the hyperbolic cosecant is just the inverse or five twelves the reciprocal
hyperbolic tangent as sine, hyperbolic sine divided by hyperbolic cosine
or in this case it's gonna be twelve thirteenths
hyperbolic cotangent then is thirteen twelfths
say we have hyperbolic sine of 2ln(x) so if we wanted to just rewrite this, the first thing we could do is take
the two up into the exponent and get hyperbolic sine of ln(x) squared
so now using the definition of hyperbolic sine, we'd have e to the ln(x) squared minus e to the negative
of ln(x) squared. Now remember again that that negative could go up into the exponent
so we'd have ln(x) to the negative two cause two times negative one is just negative two
so the e and the ln are gonna cancel and we'd get x squared minus
here the e and the ln will cancel again
x to the negative two is really just one over x squared divided by two.
We're not going to leave a complex fraction so we're gonna multiply x squared over x
squared to get x to the fourth minus one divided by two x squared
what if we want to find a derivative? y equal t squared hyperbolic tangent of one over t. We're gonna use the product rule and we're
also gonna have to use the chain rule. So the derivative of t squared is 2t
hyperbolic tangent of one over t. Now the derivative of hyperbolic tangent is hyperbolic secant squared
one over t, but then we have to take the derivative of that one over t and it's all gonna get multiplied by the first term of t squared
so the derivative of one over t is negative one over t squared
the t squared here and the t squared here are gonna cancel, so our finally answer for our first derivative is gonna be y
prime equal two t, hyperbolic tangent of one over t minus
hyperbolic secant squared of one over t
thank you and have a wonderful day
