SUMMARY

The discussion centers on proving the identity $$\sinh \left( \tanh^{-1} (x) \right) = \frac{x}{ \sqrt{1-x^2}}$$. Key steps include using the definition of hyperbolic sine, $$\sinh(x) = \frac{e^{x}-e^{-x}}{2}$$, and the inverse hyperbolic tangent, $$\tanh^{-1} (x) = \ln \left( \sqrt{ \frac{1+x}{1-x}} \right)$$. The proof is completed by simplifying the expression for $$\sinh \left( \tanh^{-1} (x) \right)$$ to arrive at the final result.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of hyperbolic functions, specifically $$\sinh$$ and $$\tanh^{-1}$$.
  • Familiarity with logarithmic identities and properties.
  • Basic knowledge of limits and continuity in calculus.
  • Ability to manipulate algebraic expressions involving square roots.
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the properties of hyperbolic functions in detail.
  • Learn about the derivation and applications of inverse hyperbolic functions.
  • Explore the relationship between hyperbolic and trigonometric functions.
  • Investigate the use of hyperbolic functions in calculus, particularly in integration and differentiation.
USEFUL FOR

Students of mathematics, educators teaching calculus and hyperbolic functions, and anyone interested in advanced algebraic identities.

Hey Mohammed , We know that :$$\sinh(x) = \frac{e^{x}-e^{-x}}{2}$$

$$\sinh\left( \tanh^{-1} (x) \right) = \frac{e^{\tanh^{-1} (x)}-e^{-\tanh^{-1} (x)}}{2}$$

We know also :

$$\tanh^{-1} (x) = \ln \left( \sqrt{ \frac{1+x}{1-x}} \right)$$

$$\sinh \left( \tanh^{-1} (x) \right) = \frac{ \sqrt{ \frac{1+x}{1-x} }- \sqrt{ \frac{1-x}{1+x} } }{2}$$

$$\sinh \left( \tanh^{-1} (x) \right) = \frac{x}{ \sqrt{1-x^2}}$$

if you have further questions you can post them in the http://www.mathhelpboards.com/f10/section .
