Euler Formula for Hyperbolic Cosine Function

Theorem

\(\ds \cosh z\) \(=\) \(\ds \prod_{n \mathop = 0}^\infty \paren {1 + \frac {4 z^2} {\paren {2 n + 1}^2 \pi^2} }\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \paren {1 + \dfrac {4 z^2} {\pi^2} } \paren {1 + \dfrac {4 z^2} {9 \pi^2} } \paren {1 + \dfrac {4 z^2} {25 \pi^2} } \dotsm\)


Proof

\(\ds \cos z\) \(=\) \(\ds \prod_{n \mathop = 0}^\infty \paren {1 - \frac {4 z^2} {\paren {2 n + 1}^2 \pi^2} }\) Euler Formula for Cosine Function
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) \(\ds \map \cos {i z}\) \(=\) \(\ds \prod_{n \mathop = 0}^\infty \paren {1 - \frac {4 \paren {i z}^2} {\paren {2 n + 1}^2 \pi^2} }\) $z \to i z$
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) \(\ds \map \cosh z\) \(=\) \(\ds \prod_{n \mathop = 0}^\infty \paren {1 + \frac {4 z^2} {\paren {2 n + 1}^2 \pi^2} }\) Hyperbolic Cosine in terms of Cosine
