Hyperbolic Functions

The document discusses hyperbolic functions, which are defined as combinations of exponential functions and have analogies to trigonometric functions. It provides definitions, identities, and reciprocal functions associated with hyperbolic sine, cosine, and tangent. Additionally, it introduces Osborne's Rule for converting trigonometric identities to their hyperbolic counterparts and includes an example of solving an equation involving hyperbolic functions.

Hyperbolic Functions: Osborne’s Rule
To obtain the corresponding identity for hyperbolic functions from
a trigonometric identity of circular functions, replace each
trigonometric function with its hyperbolic counterpart and change
the sign of every explicit or implicit product of two sines.

e.g. cos x  sin x  1
