Note: The hyperbolic functions are defined in

terms of the exponential functions. Its
differentials may also be found by differentiating
its equivalent exponential form. Similarly, the
integrals of the hyperbolic functions can be
derived by integrating the exponential form
equivalent.

Note: Integration of the hyperbolic is exactly the

same as the integration of trigonometric
functions, they only differ in signs.
