Derivatives and integrals of hyperbolic functions

Problem 2.2447 · easy

Differentiate \( \displaystyle f(x) = - \sinh{\left(3 x + 1 \right)} \).
  1. (sinh u)′ = cosh u·u′, (cosh u)′ = sinh u·u′, (tanh u)′ = sech²u·u′, (sinh⁻¹u)′ = u′/√(1 + u²), (tanh⁻¹u)′ = u′/(1 − u²).

  2. \[ \frac{d}{d x} \left(- \sinh{\left(3 x + 1 \right)}\right) = - 3 \cosh{\left(3 x + 1 \right)} \]
    Apply the rule (and the chain rule).✓ Proved
Answer \( f'(x) = - 3 \cosh{\left(3 x + 1 \right)} \)

Proved: SymPy reduced the difference between the two sides to zero. Checked independently: a separate method, named above, confirmed it. Checked numerically: the two sides agree at every sampled point, which is evidence, not proof. Reviewed: a model or a person read it; that is all a sentence can have. Solution by generator:structured/hyperbolic_calculus, checked 2026-10-19 with SymPy 1.14.0.
