Yeh i am, trig has never been a strong subject of mine :frown:


from this line multiply top and bottom of the fraction by cosh2(x/2)

this will give you

2sinh(x/2)cosh(x/2) on the top

cosh2(x/2) -sinh2(x/2) at the bottom.

can you see this?

yep i can see that as when you multiply on the top it cancels out the bottem

it cancels some bits completely and other not

read my last post. Do you have what I claim you should have?

I believe so, so just to clarify you have times top and bottom by cosh2x/2

cosh2(x/2)

"cosh squared of x over 2"

do you recognise it?
