Show $ |sinh(z)|^2 = sin^2x + sinh^2y $
Since I posted this, I found new info - cos(iy) = cosh(y) and sin(iy) = i sinh(y) which made the above easy; don't want to bother anyone so will mark this solved.

Hey ognik,

Just for the record, it appears there is a typo in there.
It should be for instance
$$ |\sinh(z)|^2 = \sinh^2x + \sin^2y $$
otherwise it's not true. :eek:
 
I posted this question on math-stackexchange but apparently I asked something stupid and I was downvoted. I still don't have an answer to my question so I hope someone in here can help me or at least explain me why I am asking something stupid. I started studying Complex Analysis and came upon the following theorem which is a direct consequence of the Cauchy-Goursat theorem: Let ##f:D\to\mathbb{C}## be an anlytic function over a simply connected region ##D##. If ##a## and ##z## are part of...
