OpenStudy (anonymous):

what happens if you plug in (x+y) to the function. (Hint: you get e to an exponent, which means you can write it as multiplication)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then you can just factor it into separated terms :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ye i did how to factor into form ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't understand your third step. I'll work on it just a sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i multipled by e^(x+y) to make right term one!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait i cant do that i think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ah, Gotcha, but you can't just multiply by something without dividing to "pay for it"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah my bad forgot ... what to do then ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hi ????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

replace each term of e^x with sinh(x)+cosh(x) (which is proven in and of itself from the equations you gave) Do the same with e^y to sinh(y)+cosh(y)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

make sure to preserve the negatives. Then use properties of odd and even functions to prove it

OpenStudy (loser66):

why don't you apply cosh(x+y) = sinh x sinhy + coshx coshy?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i.e. sinh(-x)=-sinh(x) cosh(-x)=cos(x) These are also proven by plugging in -x to the equations given and solving

OpenStudy (anonymous):

....he is trying to prove that sum formula lol

OpenStudy (loser66):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you understand what to do? after that it is just simplification algebra.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

e^x with sinh(x)+cosh(x) (which is proven in and of itself from the equations you gave) how so?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh right just add the 2 got it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

? I have no reference to what you just said :P if have any problems, just show me your work.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are there any other ways to do it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uh....if you don't substitute in you can still do it its just really messy. its much nicer if you use the functions to sub in because you want to end up with theres functions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but then how do you know do add sinh(x) and cosh(x) to get identity = e^x ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the definitions you gave me in the image.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah i mean how do you know you need to use that identity b adding them

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do I know to use it? because you want to find sinh(x+y) in terms of sinh(x), sinh(y),........ those four things. So it makes it a LOT easier to use this identity. Idk how I knew, its kind of intuitive. When you want to find it in terms of certain functions you should usually try to find a relationship between those functions and some term in your equation.

thanks i got it !
