Lesson 4 - Inverse Hyperbolic Functions (Calculus 2 Tutor)
TLDRThis Advanced Calculus 2 tutorial continues the exploration of hyperbolic functions, specifically focusing on inverse hyperbolic functions and their derivatives. The instructor draws parallels to previously discussed inverse trigonometric functions, emphasizing the concept of inverse functions as opposites that can revert to the original input when applied sequentially. The video provides the derivative formulas for inverse hyperbolic sine, cosine, tangent, and cotangent without derivation, intending to equip viewers with the tools to solve related calculus problems. The derivatives are presented as follows: inverse hyperbolic sine (1/β(1+x^2)), inverse hyperbolic cosine (1/β(x^2-1)), inverse hyperbolic tangent (1/(1-x^2)), and inverse hyperbolic cotangent (1/(1-x^2)), highlighting the similarity between the derivatives of the tangent and cotangent functions.
