`sinh(x+y) = sinh(x)cosh(y) + cosh(x)sinh(y)` Verify the identity.

`sinh(x+y) = sinh(x)cosh(y) + cosh(x)sinh(y)`


Take note that hyperbolic sine and hyperbolic cosine are defined by



  • `sinh(u)=(e^u-e^(-u))/2`

  • `cosh(u)=(e^u+e^(-u))/2`

Applying these formulas to the right side of the equation, it becomes


`sinh(x+y) =(e^x-e^(-x))/2*(e^y+e^(-y))/2 +(e^x+e^(-x))/2*(e^y-e^(-y))/2`


Multiplying the fractions, the right side turns into


`sinh(x+y) = (e^(x+y)+e^(x-y) -e^(y-x)-e^(-(x+y)))/4 + (e^(x+y)-e^(x-y)+e^(y-x)-e^(-(x+y)))/4`


Combining the like terms, it simplifies to


`sinh(x+y) = (2e^(x+y) - 2e^(-(x+y)))/4`


`sinh(x+y)=(2(e^(x+y) - e^(-(x+y))))/4`


`sinh(x + y) = (e^(x+y) - e^(-(x+y)))/2`


And, express the right side in...

`sinh(x+y) = sinh(x)cosh(y) + cosh(x)sinh(y)`


Take note that hyperbolic sine and hyperbolic cosine are defined by



  • `sinh(u)=(e^u-e^(-u))/2`


  • `cosh(u)=(e^u+e^(-u))/2`

Applying these formulas to the right side of the equation, it becomes


`sinh(x+y) =(e^x-e^(-x))/2*(e^y+e^(-y))/2 +(e^x+e^(-x))/2*(e^y-e^(-y))/2`


Multiplying the fractions, the right side turns into


`sinh(x+y) = (e^(x+y)+e^(x-y) -e^(y-x)-e^(-(x+y)))/4 + (e^(x+y)-e^(x-y)+e^(y-x)-e^(-(x+y)))/4`


Combining the like terms, it simplifies to


`sinh(x+y) = (2e^(x+y) - 2e^(-(x+y)))/4`


`sinh(x+y)=(2(e^(x+y) - e^(-(x+y))))/4`


`sinh(x + y) = (e^(x+y) - e^(-(x+y)))/2`


And, express the right side in terms of hyperbolic function again. Applying the definition of hyperbolic sine, the right side transforms to


`sinh(x+y)=sinh(x+y)`


This verifies that the given equation is an identity.



Therefore, `sinh(x+y) = sinh(x)cosh(y) + cosh(x)sinh(y)` is an identity.
