Explanation

Solution

Here, we will first use the formula cosh1x=ln(x+x21){\cosh ^{ - 1}}x = \ln \left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right) in the given equation and then we will use the formula of hyperbolic sine function, sinhx=exex2\sinh x = \dfrac{{{e^x} - {e^{ - x}}}}{2}. Then we will simplify the obtained equation using the properties of trigonometric functions to find the required value.

Complete step by step answer:

We are given that the equation is sinh(cosh1x)\sinh \left( {{{\cosh }^{ - 1}}x} \right).

Using the formula cosh1x=ln(x+x21){\cosh ^{ - 1}}x = \ln \left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right) in the above equation, we getsinh(ln(x+x21)) \Rightarrow \sinh \left( {\ln \left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)} \right)

Using the formula of hyperbolic sine function, sinhx=exex2\sinh x = \dfrac{{{e^x} - {e^{ - x}}}}{2} in the above equation, we get
eln(x+x21)eiln(x+x21)2\Rightarrow \dfrac{{{e^{\ln \left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}} - {e^{i\ln \left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}}}}{2}

Using the value, that is, elnx=x{e^{\ln x}} = x in the above equation, we get

x+x211x+x212 (x+x21)21x+x212 (x+x21)212(x+x21)  \Rightarrow \dfrac{{x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} - \dfrac{1}{{x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} }}}}{2} \\\ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{\dfrac{{{{\left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}^2} - 1}}{{x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} }}}}{2} \\\ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{{{\left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}^2} - 1}}{{2\left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}} \\\

Using the formula of trigonometric functions, (a+b)2=a2+2ab+b2{\left( {a + b} \right)^2} = {a^2} + 2ab + {b^2} in the above equation, we get

x2+(x21)212(x+x21) x2+x21+2xx2112(x+x21) 2x22+2xx212(x+x21) 2(x21+xx21)2(x+x21) (x21)+xx212(x+x21)  \Rightarrow \dfrac{{{x^2} + {{\left( {\sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}^2} - 1}}{{2\left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}} \\\ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{{x^2} + {x^2} - 1 + 2x\sqrt {{x^2} - 1} - 1}}{{2\left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}} \\\ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{2{x^2} - 2 + 2x\sqrt {{x^2} - 1} }}{{2\left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}} \\\ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{2\left( {{x^2} - 1 + x\sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}}{{2\left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}} \\\ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{\left( {{x^2} - 1} \right) + x\sqrt {{x^2} - 1} }}{{2\left( {x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} } \right)}} \\\

Taking x21\sqrt {{x^2} - 1} common from the numerator of the above equation, we get

x21(x+x21x+x21) x21  \Rightarrow \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} \left( {\dfrac{{x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} }}{{x + \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} }}} \right) \\\ \Rightarrow \sqrt {{x^2} - 1} \\\

Hence, option D is correct.

Note: In solving these types of questions, the key concept is to have a good understanding of the basic trigonometric values and learn how to use the values from trigonometric tables. Students should have a grasp of trigonometric values, for simplifying the given equation. If we have a root number in the denominator then we will rationalize it. We will divide the numerator and denominator of the fraction by the same number it does not change it. Avoid calculation mistakes.
