The publication of that volume is now discontinued and the chapters are issued in separate form. * Tn these reissues it will generally be found that the monographs” are enlarged by additional articles or appendices which either amplify the former presentation or record recent advances. This plin of publication has been arranged in order to meet the demand of teachers and the convenience of classes, but it is also thought th mathematical Hiewaiue, It is the intention of the publishers and editors to add other monographs to the series from time to time, if the call for the same seems to warrant it, Among the topics which are under consiceration are those of elliptic functions, the theory of num- bers, the group theary, the calculus of variations, and non- Euclidean geometry; possibly also monographs on branches of astronomy, mechanics, and mathematical physics may be included. It is the hope of the editors that this form of publication ‘may tend to promote mathematical study and research qyer a wider field than that which the former volume has occupied, December, 905, ie AUTHOR'S PREFACE, ‘This compendium of hyperbolic trigonometry was first published as a chapter in Merman and Woodward's Higher Mathematics, ‘There 1s reason to believe that it suppiies a need, being adapted to two or three «illerent types of readers. College students who have had elementary courses in trigonometry, analytic geometry, and differ- ential and integral calculus, and who wish to know something of the hyperbolic trigonometry on account of its important and historic rela- tions to each of those branches, will, it 1s hoped, find these relations presented in a simple and comprehensive way in’ the first half of the work. Readers who have some interest in imaginaries are then intro- duced to the more general trigonometry of the complex plane, where the circular and hyperbolic functions merge into one class of transcend- ents, the singly periodic functions, having either a real or a pure imag- inary period. For those who alo wish to view the subject in some of ns, numerous appheations have hern selected so as pil iy shows its mse tthe mode of approachmg the subject, and to the presentation of funda mental notions, and it is hoped that some improvements are diserni ble, For instance, it has been customary to define the hyperbole functions in relation to a sector of the rectangular hyperbola, and to lake the mitial radius of the sector coincident with the prneypal radius, of the curve, am the present work, these and similar restrictions are discarded mn the mterest of analogy and generality, with a gain in syme metry and simplicity, and the functions are defined as certain chitrace teristic ratios belonging to any sector of any hyperbola, Such defini- tions, m connection with the fruitful notion of correspondence of points ‘on conics, lead to simple and general proofs of the addition-theorems, from which easily follow the conversion-formulas, the derivatives, the Maclaurin expansions, and the exponential expressions, The proofs, are so arranged as to appiy equally to the circular tunctons, regarded as the characteristic ratios belonging to any elliptic sector, For those, however, who may wish to start with the exponential expressions as the definitions of the hyperbohe functions, the appropriate order of procedure is indicated on page 25, and a direct mode of bringing such exponential definitions into geometrical relation with the hyperbolic sector 1s shown in the Appendix.

CORRESPONDENCE OF POI To prepare the way for a general treatment of the hype bolic functions a preliminary discussion is given on the relations between hyperbolic sectors. The method adopted is such as to apply at the xame time to sectors of the ellipse, including the circle; and the analogy of the hyperbolic and circular functions will be obvious at every step, since the same set of he read in connectic th with atians thy hyperbola with the theury of e species, sc cllipset Ht fs convenient to beg correspondence of points on two central conics of lil i.e. either both ellipses or both hyperbol: To obtain a definition of corresponding points, let O,4,, 0,8, be conjugate radii of @ central conic, and O,d,.

HISTORICAL AND BIBLIOGRAPHICAL, What is probably the earliest suggestion of the analogy between the sector of the circle and that of the hyperbola is found in Newton's Principia (Bk. 2, prop. 8 et seq.) in connection with the solution of a dynamical problem. On the analytical side, the first hint of the modi- fied sine and cosine is seen in Roger Cotes’ Harmonica Mensurarum (1722), where he suggests the possibility of modifying the expression for the area of the prolaie spheivid so as iv give ihai of ihe oblate one, by a certain use of the operator V—1. The actual inventor of the incanza Ricea Phys. Bononis, 1757). Te adopied the nviation Shp, Chop for the hyperbolic functions, and Sep, Ce.g for the cir- cular ones, He proved the addition theorem geometrically and derived a construction for the solution of a cubic equation. Soon after, Daviet de Foncenex showed how to interchange circular and hyperbolic fun tions by the use of V’—1, and gave the analogue of De Moivre’s theorem, the work resting more on analogy, however, than on clear definition (Reffex. sur lee quant. imag., Miscel. Turin Soc, Tom. x). Johann Heinrich Lambert systematized the subject, and gave the serial devel- opments and the exponential expressions. He adopted the notation sinh u, etc., and introduced the transcendent angle, now called the edema: Gc. page go). mportan history of the subject is indicated on page 30. iy played a considerable part in the controversy regarding the doctrine of imaginaries, which occupied so much attention in the eighteenth cen- tury, and which gave birth to the modem theory of functions of the 2 FAYPERROLIC FUNCTIONS. complex variable. In the growth of the general complex theory, the importance of the “ singly periodic functions” became still clearer, and was gradually developed by such writers as Ferroni (Magnit. expon. log. et trig., Florence, 1782); Dirksen (Organon der tran. Anal., Ber- kt, Crelle, x: ; Schollbach (Die cinfa: 1, 2256); Schellbach (Die einfas » Crelle, 3854)5 ‘Ohm » #243) miberg, 1855); Hotel (Theor. des quant. complex, Paris, 1870). Many other writers have helped in systematizing and tabulating these functions, and in adapting them to a variety of applications. ‘The following works may be espe- cially mentioned: Gronau (Tafeln, 862, Theor. und Anwend., 1865); Forti (Tavoli e teoria, 1870); Laisant (Essai, 1874); Gunther (Die Lehre..., 1881). ‘The last-named work contains a very full history and bibliography with numerous applications. Professor A. G. Green- hill, in various places in his writings, has shown the importance of both the direct and inverse hyperbolic functions, and has done much to pop- ularize their use (see Diff. and Int. Calc., 1891). ‘The following articles ‘on fundamental conceptions should be noticed: Macfarlane, On the defini functions (Buii, NW. ¥. MM. Soc., 1895). Attention has been caiied in Arts, 30 and 37 to the work of Arthur K. Kennelly in applying the hyperbolic complex theory to the plane vectors which present them- selves in the theory of alternating currents; and his chart has been described on page 44 as a useful substitute for a numerical complex table (Proc. A. I. E. E., 1895). It may be worth mentioning in this connection that the present wnter’s complex table in Art. 39 is believed to he the earliest of its kind for any function of the general argument x+y. (See Appendix, C.) B. EXPONENTIAL EXPRESSIONS AS DEFINITIONS. For those who wish to start with the exponential expressions as the definitions of sinh u and cosh u, as indicated on page 25, it is here pro- posed to show how these definitions can be easily brought into direct : fea vio el eee : and the differential relations ¢ cosh w=sinh du, d sinh u=cosh u du, which are themselves immediate consequences of those exponential definitions. Tet OA, the initial radius of the hyperbolic sector, be EXPONENTIAL EXPRESSIONS AS DEFINITIONS. 73 taken as axis of x, and its conjugate radius OB as axis of y; let OA =a, OB=6, angle AOB=w, and area of triangle AOB=K, then K= dab sin w. Let the coordinates of a point P on the hyperbola be x and y, then *2/a?—32/82—1, Comparison of this equation with the ideniiiy cos u=1 permits the wo assumptions x/a=cosh « and y/=sinh w, wherein wis a single auxiliary variable; and it now remains to give a geometrical interpretation to 1, and to prove that “ AP. nates IK, of a second point Q be x+dx and y+dy, then the area of the triangle POQ is, by analytic geometry, #(x4y—ydx)sin w, Now the sector POQ bears to the triangle POQ a ratio whose limit is unity, hence the differential of the sector S may be written dS—4(x dy _y dx)sin w— Jab sin w(cosh® u—sink® udu=K du. By integration S=Ku, hence u=5/K, the sectorial measure (p. 10); this establishes the fundamental ‘geometrical relations /a=cosh S/K, »/b=sinh S/K. pared by G. F. Becker and C. E. Van Orstrand (1909). For complex arguments the most elaborate tables are those of Professor A. E. Kennelly: “Tables of Complex Hyperbolic and Circular Functions ” (Harvard University Press, 1944). ‘Yhree-digit tables of sinh and cosh of x+iy, up to x=1 and y=1 by steps of .o1, are given by W. E. Miller in a paper. “Formule, Constants, and Hyperbolic Functions for Transmission- line Problems” in the General Electric Review Supplement, Schen- ectady, N. Y., May, 1910. There are interesting applications and an extensive bibliography in Professor Kennelly’s treatise on “The Application of Hyperbolic Funciiony io Elecisital Engineering Pivbleus" (University of London Press, 1912).
