      4. \(\ln(\cosh x+\sinh x)+\ln(\cosh x−\sinh x)\)

    Proofs

    1. Prove the identity. Your work should be legible, and all your logic should be clear and justified.
      \[ \cosh{(x + y)} = \cosh{(x)} \cosh{(y)} + \sinh{(x)} \sinh{(y)} \nonumber \]
    2. Prove the identity. Your work should be legible, and all your logic should be clear and justified.
      \[ \sinh{(x + y)} = \sinh{(x)} \cosh{(y)} + \cosh{(x)} \sinh{(y)} \nonumber \]
    3. Prove the identity. Your work should be legible, and all your logic should be clear and justified.
      \[ \cosh{(2x)} = \cosh^2{(x)} + \sinh^2{(x)} \nonumber \]
    4. Prove the identity. Your work should be legible, and all your logic should be clear and justified.
      \[ \sinh{(2x)} = 2 \sinh{(x)} \cosh{(x)} \nonumber \]
    5. Prove that \( f(x) =  \cosh{(x)} \) is an even function.
    6. Prove that \( f(x) =  \sinh{(x)} \) is an odd function.
    7. Prove the identitiy. Your work should be legible, and all your logic should be clear and justified.
      \[\cosh(x)+\sinh(x))^n=\cosh(nx)+\sinh(nx)\nonumber\]
    8. Prove the expression for \(\sinh^{−1}(x).\) Multiply \(x=\sinh(y)=\dfrac{e^y−e^{−y}}{2}\) by \(2e^y\) and solve for \(y\). Does your expression match the textbook?
    9. Prove the expression for \(\cosh^{−1}(x).\) Multiply \(x=\cosh(y)=\dfrac{e^y+e^{−y}}{2}\) by \(2e^y\) and solve for \(y\). Does your expression match the textbook?
