TopicHyperbolic functions
TypeIntegrate using hyperbolic substitution
DifficultyChallenging +1.2 This is a structured Further Maths question on hyperbolic functions with clear scaffolding. Parts (a) and (b) are routine proofs using standard techniques. Part (c) requires executing a given substitution (the hardest part, but methodical), and part (d) is straightforward evaluation. While Further Maths content is inherently harder, the extensive guidance and step-by-step structure make this more accessible than typical FM questions, placing it moderately above average difficulty.

  1. Using exponentials, show that \(\cosh 2 u \equiv 2 \sinh ^ { 2 } u + 1\).
  2. By differentiating both sides of the identity in part (a) with respect to \(u\), show that \(\sinh 2 u \equiv 2 \sinh u \cosh u\).
  3. Use the substitution \(\mathrm { x } = \sinh ^ { 2 } \mathrm { u }\) to find \(\int \sqrt { \frac { x } { x + 1 } } \mathrm {~d} x\). Give your answer in the form asinh \(^ { - 1 } \mathrm {~b} \sqrt { \mathrm { x } } + \mathrm { f } ( \mathrm { x } )\) where \(a\) and \(b\) are integers and \(\mathrm { f } ( x )\) is a function to be determined.
  4. Hence determine the exact area of the region between the curve \(\mathrm { y } = \sqrt { \frac { \mathrm { x } } { \mathrm { x } + 1 } }\), the \(x\)-axis, the line \(x = 1\) and the line \(x = 2\). Give your answer in the form \(\mathrm { p } + \mathrm { q } \mid \mathrm { nr }\) where \(p , q\) and \(r\) are numbers to be determined.
