  1. 5.10 Hyperbolic Functions Greg Kelly, Hanford High School, Richland, Washington

  2. Objectives • Develop properties of hyperbolic functions. • Differentiate and integrate hyperbolic functions. • Develop properties of inverse hyperbolic functions. • Differentiate and integrate functions involving inverse hyperbolic functions.

  3. Consider the following two functions: These functions show up frequently enough that they have been given names.

  4. The behavior of these functions shows such remarkable parallels to trig functions, that they have been given similar names.

  5. Hyperbolic Sine: (pronounced “cinch x”) Hyperbolic Cosine: (pronounced “kosh x”)

  6. Now, if we have “trig-like” functions, it follows that we will have “trig-like” identities. First, an easy one:

  7. Note that this is similar to but not the same as: I will give you a sheet with the formulas on it to use on the test. Don’t memorize these formulas.

  8. Derivatives can be found relatively easily using the definitions. Surprise, this is positive!

  9. So,

  10. Find the derivative.

  11. A hanging cable makes a shape called a catenary. Even though it looks like a parabola, it is not a parabola! (for some constant a) Length of curve calculation:

  12. Another example of a catenary is the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri.

  13. Another example of a catenary is the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri.

  14. If air resistance is proportional to the square of velocity: y is the distance the object falls in t seconds. A and B are constants.

  15. A third application is the tractrix. (pursuit curve) An example of a real-life situation that can be modeled by a tractrix equation is a semi-truck turning a corner. semi-truck Another example is a boat attached to a rope being pulled by a person walking along the shore. boat

  16. A third application is the tractrix. (pursuit curve) a Both of these situations (and others) can be modeled by: semi-truck a boat

  17. The word tractrix comes from the Latin tractus, which means “to draw, pull or tow”. (Our familiar word “tractor” comes from the same root.) Other examples of a tractrix curve include a heat-seeking missile homing in on a moving airplane, and a dog leaving the front porch and chasing person running on the sidewalk.
