Theorem
- $\cosh^3 x = \dfrac {\cosh 3 x + 3 \cosh x} 4$
Proof
\(\ds \cosh 3 x\) | \(=\) | \(\ds 4 \cosh^3 x - 3 \cosh x\) | Triple Angle Formula for Hyperbolic Cosine | |||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds 4 \cosh^3 x\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \cosh 3 x + 3 \cosh x\) | rearranging | ||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds \cosh^3 x\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \dfrac {\cosh 3 x + 3 \cosh x} 4\) | dividing both sides by $4$ |
