We'll write the formula for each term of the given
identity:
sinh2x = (1/2)(e^2x -
e^-2x)
sinh x = (1/2)(e^x -
e^-x)
cosh x = (1/2)(e^x +
e^-x)
We'll re-write the identity that has to be
demonstrated:
(1/2)(e^2x - e^-2x) = 2*(1/2)*(1/2)(e^x -
e^-x)*(e^x + e^-x)
We'll simplify and we'll
get:
(1/2)(e^2x - e^-2x) = (1/2)(e^x - e^-x)*(e^x +
e^-x)
We'll re-write the product from the right side as a
difference of squares:
(1/2)(e^2x - e^-2x) = (1/2)[(e^x)^2
- (e^-x)^2]
We'll multiply the exponents and we'll
get:
(1/2)(e^2x - e^-2x) = (1/2)(e^2x -
e^-2x) q.e.d.
