why not?
 
i think you wrote it wrong. it should be
\sin^{2}t = \left(\frac{1}{\cosh p}\right)^2

What is the actual question you are asking here? Are you asking why, or if, the left implies the right. Have you done anything to attempt to show this? I doubt anyone will help unless you firstly specify your question, and secondly show some effort!
 
Since ##px^9+q## is the factor, then ##x^9=\frac{-q}{p}## will be one of the roots. Let ##f(x)=27x^{18}+bx^9+70##, then: $$27\left(\frac{-q}{p}\right)^2+b\left(\frac{-q}{p}\right)+70=0$$ $$b=27 \frac{q}{p}+70 \frac{p}{q}$$ $$b=\frac{27q^2+70p^2}{pq}$$ From this expression, it looks like there is no greatest value of ##b## because increasing the value of ##p## and ##q## will also increase the value of ##b##. How to find the greatest value of ##b##? Thanks
