AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around proving the statement involving the equation $$\sin\left(\theta+i\phi \right)=\tan(x)+i \sec(x)$$. By applying the angle-sum identity for sine, the expressions for $$\sin(\theta)\cosh(\phi)$$ and $$\cos(\theta)\sinh(\phi)$$ are derived. The conversation then explores double-angle identities and Pythagorean identities to manipulate these expressions. Ultimately, the conclusion reached is that $$\cos(2\theta)\cosh(2\phi)=3$$, demonstrating a significant relationship between the trigonometric and hyperbolic functions involved. This proof highlights the interplay between complex angles and their real and imaginary components.

We are given:

$$\sin\left(\theta+i\phi \right)=\tan(x)+i \sec(x)$$

Using the angle-sum identity for sine on the left, we have:

$$\sin(\theta)\cosh(\phi)+i \cos(\theta)\sinh(\phi)=\tan(x)+i \sec(x)$$

This implies:

$$\sin(\theta)\cosh(\phi)=\tan(x)$$

$$\cos(\theta)\sinh(\phi)=\sec(x)$$

Now, we have the following double-angle identities:

$$\cos(2\theta)=\cos^2(\theta)-\sin^2(\theta)$$

$$\cosh(2\phi)=\cosh^2(\phi)+\sinh^2(\phi)$$

Hence:

$$\cos(2\theta)\cosh(2\phi)=\cos^2(\theta)\cosh^2( \phi)+\cos^2(\theta)\sinh^2(\phi)- \sin^2(\theta)\cosh^2(\phi)- \sin^2(\theta)\sinh^2(\phi)$$

Using the implications we drew above, we may write:

$$\cos(2\theta)\cosh(2\phi)=\cos^2(\theta)\cosh^2( \phi)+\sec^2(x)-\tan^2(x)- \sin^2(\theta)\sinh^2(\phi)$$

Using a Pythagorean identity, there results:

$$\cos(2\theta)\cosh(2\phi)=\cos^2(\theta)\cosh^2( \phi)+1- \sin^2(\theta)\sinh^2(\phi)$$

Using Pythagorean identities, we have:

$$\cos(2\theta)\cosh(2\phi)=\left(1-\sin^2(\theta) \right)\cosh^2( \phi)+1-\left(1-\cos^2(\theta) \right)\sinh^2(\phi)$$

We may arrange this as follows:

$$\cos(2\theta)\cosh(2\phi)=1+\left(\cosh^2( \phi)-\sinh^2(\phi) \right)+\left(\cos^2(\theta)\sinh^2(\phi)- \sin^2(\theta)\cosh^2(\phi) \right)$$

Using the hyperbolic identity and our previous results, we then find:

$$\cos(2\theta)\cosh(2\phi)=1+1+1=3$$
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
