Inverse Hyperbolic functions

Formulaes:

§  sinh^-1 x = log_e (x + √(x² + 1))

§  cosh^-1 x = log_e (x + √(x² - 1)) for x ≥ 1

§  tanh-1 x = ½ log [(1 +x)/ (1 – x)] for x ϵ (-1, 1)

§  coth^-1 x = ½ log [(1 +x)/ (1 – x)] for |x| > 1

§  sech^-1 x = log_e (1 + √ (1 - x²)/ x) for x ϵ (0, 1]

§  cosech^-1 x = log_e (1 + √ (1 + x²)/ x) for x > 0

= log_e (1 - √ (1 + x²)/ x) for x < 0

§  sinh^-1 x = cosh^-1 √(x² + 1) = cosech^-1 (1/ x) = tanh-1 (x / √ (1 + x²))

§  cosh^-1 x = sinh^-1 √(x² - 1) = sech^-1 (1/ x) = tanh-1 (√ (1 + x²) / x)
