  1. Given that \(y = \cosh ^ { - 1 } x\), show that \(y = \ln \left( x + \sqrt { x ^ { 2 } - 1 } \right)\).
  2. Show that \(\frac { \mathrm { d } } { \mathrm { d } x } \left( \cosh ^ { - 1 } x \right) = \frac { 1 } { \sqrt { x ^ { 2 } - 1 } }\).
  3. Solve the equation \(\cosh x = 3\), giving your answers in logarithmic form.
