Given that y = cosh^-1 (x) , Show that y = ln(x+ sqrt(x^2-1))

Have a picture of full working with annotation to go through during interview.Here is rough outline:y = cosh -1 (x)x = cosh(y)x = (e y +e -y )/22x = e y +e -y e y +e -y -2x = 0Turn into hidden quadratic by m...

Sketch the locus of z on an Argand diagram if arg[(z-5)/(z-3)] = π/6

Rewrite as arg(z-5) - arg(z-3) = π/6 and let arg(z-5) = b and arg(z-3) = a, so that b-a = π/6Since we know that each argument makes a half line (starting at (3,0) for angle a, (5,0) for angle b) the half lin...

Given f(x)= 8 − x^2, solve f(3x) = -28

First substitute (3x) into the equation for f(x), giving f(3x) = 8 - 9x 2 . This is then equal to -28 and so it is remains to solve the equation 8 - 9x 2 = -28. This can be written as 9x 2 = 36, dividing thr...
