Hyperbolic Functions

Vincenzo Riccati
(1707 - 1775) is
given credit for
introducing the
hyperbolic functions.
Hyperbolic functions are very useful
in both mathematics and physics.
The hyperbolic functions are:
Hyperbolic sine:

cosine
Equilateral hyperbola

x = coshα , y = sinhα
x2 – y2= cosh2 α - sinh2 α = 1.

hyperbolic cosine.
Hyperbolic Curves
y = cosh x

The curve formed by a hanging
necklace is called a catenary. Its
shape follows the curve of
y = cosh x.
Catenary Curves

The curve described by a uniform,
flexible chain hanging under the
influence of gravity is called a
catenary curve. This is the familiar
curve of an electric wire hanging
between two telephone poles.

Architecture

In architecture, an inverted
catenary curve is often used to
create domed ceilings. This shape
provides an amazing amount of
structural stability as attested by
fact that many of ancient structures
like the pantheon of Rome which
employed the catenary in their
design are still standing.

The hyperbolic functions share many properties with
the corresponding circular functions. In fact, just as
the circle can be represented parametrically by
x = a cos t
y = a sin t,
a rectangular hyperbola (or, more specifically, its
right branch) can be analogously represented by
x = a cosh t
y = a sinh t
where cosh t is the hyperbolic cosine and sinh t is
the hyperbolic sine.

Just as the points (cos t, sin t) form
a circle with a unit radius, the
points (cosh t, sinh t) form the right
half of the equilateral hyperbola.

Applications of Hyperbolic functions

Hyperbolic functions occur in the
solutions of some important linear
differential equations, for example
the equation defining a catenary,
and Laplace's equation in Cartesian
coordinates. The latter is important
in many areas of physics, including
electromagnetic theory, heat
transfer, fluid dynamics, and special
relativity.


The hyperbolic functions arise in many
problems of mathematics and
mathematical physics in which integrals
involving a 2  x 2 arise (whereas the
circular functions involve a 2  x 2 ).
For instance, the hyperbolic sine
arises in the gravitational potential of a
cylinder and the calculation of the Roche
limit. The hyperbolic cosine function is
the shape of a hanging cable (the socalled catenary).

The hyperbolic tangent arises in the
calculation and rapidity of special
relativity. All three appear in the
Schwarzschild metric using external
isotropic Kruskal coordinates in general
relativity. The hyperbolic secant arises
in the profile of a laminar jet. The
hyperbolic cotangent arises in the
Langevin function for magnetic
polarization.
Derivatives of Hyperbolic Functions

d/dx(sinh(x)) = cosh(x)

d/dx(cosh(x)) = sinh(x)

d/dx(tanh(x)) = sech2(x)
Integrals of Hyperbolic Functions

∫ sinh(x)dx = cosh(x) + c

∫ cosh(x)dx = sinh(x) + c.

∫ tanh(x)dx = ln(cosh x) + c.
Example :
Find d/dx (sinh2(3x))
Sol: Using the chain rule,
we have:

d/dx (sinh2(3x))
= 2 sinh(3x) d/dx (sinh(3x))
= 6 sinh(3x) cosh(3x)
