The value of sinh(cosh−1x) is
A. x2+1
B. x2+11
C. x2−1
D. None of these
Solution
We will first substitute the value of cosh−1x as ln(x+x2−1). And then we will use the identity sinhθ=21(eθ−e−θ). Then, simplify the expression by using properties of logarithm, elna=a
Complete step by step solution:
As we know sinhθ and coshθ are hyperbolic functions.
We have to evaluate the value of sinh(cosh−1x)
The value of cosh−1x is given as ln(x+x2−1)
Hence, we have to calculate the value of sinh(ln(x+x2−1))
Also, it is known that sinhθ=21(eθ−e−θ)
Then the value of sinh(ln(x+x2−1)) is
=21(eln(x+x2−1)−e−ln(x+x2−1)) =21(eln(x+x2−1)−eln(x+x2−1)−1)
Next, we will simplify the expression using the property elna=a
=21(x+x2−1−x+x2−11)
On simplifying the above expression, we will get,
=21(x+x2−1(x+x2−1)2−1) =21(x+x2−1x2+x2−1+2xx2−1−1) =21(x+x2−12x2−2+2xx2−1)
On taking 2 common
=x+x2−1(x2−1)+xx2−1 =x2−1(x+x2−1x2−1+x) =x2−1
Hence, the value of sinh(cosh−1x) is x2−1
Thus, option C is correct.
Note:
The functions sinhx and coshx are hyperbolic functions. And the value of sinhx=2ex−e−x and cosh=2ex+e−x. Here, exis the natural exponential function.
