AUTHOR'S PREFACE.

This compendium of hyperbolic trigonometry was first published as a chapter in Mernman and Woodward's Higher Mathematics. There is reason to believe that it supplies a need, being adapted to two or three different types of readers. College students who have

had elementary courses in trigonometry, analytic geometry, and differential and integral calculus, and who wi.sh to know something of the on account of its important and historic relahyperbolic* trigonometry tions to each of those branches, will,

it is hoped, find these relations in the first half of the and a way comprehensive simple presented work. Readers who have some interest in imagmaries are then intro-

in

to the more general trigonometry of the the circular and hyperbolic functions merge into ents, the singly periodic functions, having cither For those who also wish to view inary period.

the subject in some of practical relations, numerous applications have be n selected so as to illustrate the various parts of the theory, and to show its use to the physicist and engineer, appropriate numerical tables being supplied for f

its

these purposes. With all these things in mind, much thought has been given to the mode ot approaching the subject, and to the presentation of fundamental notions, and it is hoped that some improvements are discerni-

For instance, it has been customary to define the hyperbolic ble. functions in relation to a sector of the rectangular hyperbola, and to take the initial radius of the sector coincident with the principal radius of the curve; in the present work, these and similar restrictions are discarded in the interest of analogy and generality, with a gain in symmetry and simplicity, and the functions are defined as certain charac-

belonging to any sector of any hyperbola. Such definiconnection with the fruitful notion of correspondence of points on comes, lead to simple and general proofs of the addition-theorems, from which easily follow the con version- formulas, the derivatives, the teristic ratios

tions, in

Maclaurin expansions, and the exponential expresMons. The proofs are so arranged as to apply equally to the circular functions, 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 hyperbolic functions, the appropriate order of procedure is indicated cm page 25, and a direct mode of bringing such

exponential definitions into geometrical relation with the hyperbolic sector is ^.hown in the Appendix. December, igo^
