Corollary to Double Angle Formula for Hyperbolic Cosine

$\cosh 2 x = 1 + 2 \sinh^2 x$

where $\cosh$ and $\sinh$ denote hyperbolic cosine and hyperbolic sine respectively.


Proof

\(\ds \cosh 2 x\) \(=\) \(\ds \cosh^2 x + \sinh^2 x\) Double Angle Formula for Hyperbolic Cosine
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \paren {1 + \sinh^2 x} + \sinh^2 \theta\) Difference of Squares of Hyperbolic Cosine and Sine
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 1 + 2 \sinh^2 x\)

$\blacksquare$
