Power Reduction Formulas/Hyperbolic Sine Cubed

Theorem

$\sinh^3 x = \dfrac {\sinh 3 x - 3 \sinh x} 4$

where $\sin$ denotes hyperbolic sine.


Proof

\(\ds \sinh 3 x\) \(=\) \(\ds 3 \sinh x + 4 \sinh^3 x\) Triple Angle Formula for Hyperbolic Sine
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) \(\ds 4 \sinh^3 x\) \(=\) \(\ds \sinh 3 x - 3 \sinh x\) rearranging
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) \(\ds \sinh^3 x\) \(=\) \(\ds \frac {\sinh 3 x - 3 \sinh x} 4\) dividing both sides by $4$

$\blacksquare$
