eleven authors, cach chapter being independent of the others,
but all supposing the reader to have at least a mathematical
training equivalent to that given in classival and engincering
colleges. 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

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,

ieAUTHOR'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.

ART. 1. 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

In discussing the relations between corresponding areas it
is convenient to adopt the following use of the word “ measure”
the ratio which it bears to the constant area of the triangie
formed by two conjugate diameters of the same conic.

ifferentiations. In this connection it may be noted that the
frequent appearance of the hyperbolic (and circular) functions
in the solution of physical problems is chiefly due to the fact
that they answer the question: What function has its second
derivative equal to a positive (or negative) constant multiple
of the function itself? (See Probs. 28-30.) An answer such as
cosh ms is not, however, to be understood as asserting that
‘mz is an actual sectorial measure and y its characteris
same as the known reiation between the measure of a hyper~

These two systems of curves, when accurately drawn at
close intervals on the Z pline, constitute a chart of the hyper-
bolic cosine; and the numerical value of cosh (m -+ i) can be
read off at the intersection of the ellipse whose parameter is 1

When interpolation is necessary it may be performed in three
stages. For example, to find cosh (.82-+ 1.344): First find
cosh (.82 + 1.32), by keeping y at 1.3 and interpolating between
the entries under x =.8 and x

!A. 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

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

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 the2 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

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

and y, then *2/a?—32/82—1, Comparison of this equation with the

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).
Tt should be noted that this author uses the term “ hyperbolic
to the fact that the “sector
measure" for the circle and ellipse
is an actual angle (p. rr), ‘he convenient term “ angloid” has
