The Hyperbolic Cosine Model (HCM, Andrich and Luo, 1993) for dichotomous unfolding responses is derived from the Rasch model for 3-ordered-category responses, but is not, itself, a Rasch model.

If hyperbolic substitution is not part of your curriculum, then skip ahead (unless you're curious) to Partial Fractions, and don't worry, we will cover the methods to integrate the functions that are covered here later on.
Although the derivative of the hyperbolic sine is the hyperbolic cosine, the analogy does not quite stretch to finding the derivative of the hyperbolic cosine.
The integrands that the hyperbolic functions address are all analogs of the ones that the trig functions were able to address.

 ANSI and GNU Common Lisp Document - sinh   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
The branch cut for the inverse hyperbolic sine function is in two pieces: one along the positive imaginary axis above i (inclusive), continuous with quadrant I, and one along the negative imaginary axis below -i (inclusive), continuous with quadrant III.
The branch cut for the inverse hyperbolic tangent function is in two pieces: one along the negative real axis to the left of -1 (inclusive), continuous with quadrant III, and one along the positive real axis to the right of~1 (inclusive), continuous with quadrant I. The points -1 and~1 are excluded from the domain.
Thus the range of the inverse hyperbolic tangent function is identical to that of the inverse hyperbolic sine function with the points -\pi i/2 and~\pi i/2 excluded.

For hyperbole, the figure of speech, see hyperbole.
The rectangular hyperbola with the coordinate axes as its asymptotes is given by the equation xy=c, where c is a constant.
Just as the sine and cosine functions give a parametric equation for the ellipse, so the hyperbolic sine and hyperbolic cosine give a parametric equation for the hyperbola.

 Hyperbolic function : Hyperbolic cosine
The hyperbolic functions are analogs of the ordinary trigonometric, or circular, functions.
The parameter x can no longer be interpreted as an angle, though, and the hyperbolic functions are not periodic.
The function cosh x is always positive, symmetric with respect to the y-axis and satisfies cosh 0 = 1, the function sinh x is symmetric with respect to the origin and hence sinh 0 = 0.

There are two cases to consider -- spherical geometry and hyperbolic plane geometry; in each case, as in the Euclidean case, the result follows from the appropriate law of cosines:
By using the Maclaurin series for the cosine function, it can be shown that as the radius R approaches infinity, the spherical form of the Pythagorean theorem approaches the Euclidean form.
By using the Maclaurin series for this function, it can be shown that as a hyperbolic triangle becomes very small (i.e., as a, b, and c all approach zero), the hyperbolic form of the Pythagorean theorem approaches the Euclidean form.
