What are Hyperbolas? | Ch 1, Hyperbolic Trigonometry
This is the first chapter in a series about hyperbolas from first principles, reimagining trigonometry using hyperbolas instead of circles. This first chapter defines hyperbolas and hyperbolic relationships and sets some foreshadowings for later chapters
This is my completed submission to the #some2 contest, put on by @3blue1brown.

Excellent video 10/10. Would have been 11/10 if you cut the Music out. Also can you relate this to special relativity. Many thanks
This is pure BS. Trigonometric functions are secants of unit circle corresponding to a given length of arc. Using double areas of circle sectors will also do. Hyperbolic functions are exactly same secants of unit hyperbola except arc length will not do in this case and only area of sector is used as argument () In American textbooks function are denoted as sinh and sinh^-1 in Europe they use more relevant notation as sh(x) and arsh(y) read "area-sinus-hyperbolic"
Yes the gudemannian function relates circular and hyperbolic trig functions, such that tan(θ)=sinh(φ) and sec(θ)=cosh(φ). Lol we're not there yet. I'm not claiming to come up with anything new other than simply this: It would be nice to have a treatment of hyperbolic trig that starts from right triangles and ratio definitions like we do for circular trig. Some interesting geometry, algebra, and intuitions fall out as a result. One benefit, for example, is that the forward-backward transforms that come up in calculus, such as arsinh(cosh(x)) have nice geometric methods that parallel those in circular trig, but I never see it taught that way.
First i felt happy because i finally found someone explaining this perfectly, but then i realized that it's only a one video 😢
Really great video! I hope you feel inspired to make more!
Great video!
I wish I had this video (and it's follow ups) years ago when I was struggling with my degree. Hyperbolic trig was the breaking point for me in maths. Eagerly awaiting part two!
paring down commitments. One byproduct is that I expect and hope to get back to this soooon
@@arithknot9740 I totally understand how 'real life' gets in the way of fun stuff like this. Good luck, and thanks for the video :)
You are amazing! You are the one who helped me understand hyperbolic trig
Thank you for this channel. There are not enough videos about hyperbolic trigonometry taking this more fundamental approach. I hope you make a few follow up videos... especially on why it's natural that the hyperbolic trig functions contain the exponential function in the way they do. What's the connection between fixed-leg triangles and exponentials?
In short, we can parameterize the hyperbola as (x,y) = (cosh φ, sinh φ). But we can define new coordinates along the asymptotes: (a, b) = (0.5 e^φ, 0.5 e^(-φ)). Geometrically, we can see this relationship in the unit hyperbola as we draw a perpendicular from the asymptote to our point. This will be the topic of the second and third videos.
Great Video! I really loved the diagrams along with the explanations!
At 3:28, I was wondering, is there a way to draw on the right triangle onto the hyperbola? The same way you can draw a right triangle inside the unit circle, and move it around?
There is, but it's not quite the same. In that method, you take a triangle at one fixed level of extension, and apply hyperbolic rotation to it. But we haven't discussed hyperbolic angle or hyperbolic rotation yet. So that's coming later.
@@arithknot9740where do the lines of triangle end up? Is the fixed length between the origin and the bottom of the hyperbola?
Beautiful
i love your explaination look forward for more! i'd like to ask how you studied math to have such deep perspective, your motivation to do so. also what problem you are trying to solve, understand currently?
I study to answer my own questions. This stuff comes from my explorations into the unsolved question of the (ir)rationality of γ.
lol did you died?
lol i dids not died. i just has many lots of responsabilitoeses
subscribed !
bro dropped one great video and never came back
:( Haven't forgotten. Busy life though. Definitely want to get back to this still
(1/γ)^2-(i*v/c)^2=1
You need to make part 2!!!
I found this more engaging than Interstellar! Hope your heart melts and you post more such content...
You are off to a great start. Look forward to next video. I have never looked at hyperbolas this way. thanks
Very clear introduction to the topic. Thank you.
What a fantastic explanation
A cross between Pokemon and Star Trek. 😎
this just made me realise why we use hyperbolic trig in special relativity this is unreal
From the other treatments I've seen, the asymptote corresponds to the speed of light. You might take a look at minutephysics' relativity series 😊

3:14 is that the case just for the unit hyperbola if not what it would be for hyperbola of form (x/a)^2 - (y/b)^2 = 1 what the fixed length would be?
That's a non-square hyperbola. That would be like asking what the radius of an ellipse is. If a=b, then it's a square hyperbola. (x/a)^2 - (y/a)^2 = 1 x^2 - y^2 = a^2 So it has a fixed length of a. But yeah, if a doesn't equal b, you have an x-stretch that is different than the y-stretch, and you get a non-square hyperbola. The question I left hanging was how one might get a non-square hyperbola in the triangle context, or if that even makes sense.
@@arithknot9740 Thanks for the answer!!
Excellent
PLEASE complete this series!
Currently working on the second one
I've never seen the Hyperbola explained in this way! WOW! Eye opening!
So little views for such a great video.. very nice, I was truly enjoying myself. (My younger stupid rebel self should see me now 😅)
Hey, Look into my eyes, look into my eyes, not around the eyes, don't look around the eyes, look into my eyes. "Snaps 🤞" you're under. Now go and make another video immediately after reading this where you explain another math topic. Annnnnd you're out "🫰"
Oh no! Where is chapter 2! You did such a great job on this, thank you.
It's not forgotten. I'm just too terribly busy. I'm trying to pare down some commitments so that maybe I can get back to this soon. I've been so looking forward to it
Subscribed and awaiting the sequel!!
hes too busy grading my algebra 2 homework
@@jelly.timeeeThere's some truth to that 😅
@@arithknot9740 please come back 🙏🙏
Very nice video. Make more videos like this 👍❤️
Lovely
It would be great to have follow up videos 😢
Yeah, I agree! There’s simply not enough videos on hyperbolic trig when it describes so much, the perfect arch, a string held between two hands, and that’s just one function, the catenoid or hyperbolic cosine variant
Finally something sensible. I am really not interested in defining hyperbolic functions in terms of exponentials- the typical way to define hyperbolic functions. Instead, I want to study the geometry of hyperbolas and then try to understand how it relates with exponentials. If you didn't know, e was defined using hyperbola before Euler changed it. Happy to see someone talking about it the way I want to learn it...
That's exactly what I have in mind. I've done a just a little bit of hunting and haven't found anyone that has developed this topic this way, so I've been doing it from scratch. It took me about a month to come up with a nice geometric proof for hyperbolic angle addition. Hopefully I can get back to this hobby soon.
@@arithknot9740 Oh, sounds exciting! Please do it, I'll be waiting for it. My fascination for this came with the idea that e^(ix) can be thought of as (e^x)^i and e^x being coshx + sinhx, e^(ix) would be cosh(ix) + sinh(ix), which is cosx + isinx - Euler's formula So De Moivre's formula applies not only to e^(ix), but also to e^x. Just like e^(inx) = (cosx + isinx)^n = cos(nx) + isin(nx), We have e^(nx) = (coshx + sinhx)^n = cosh(nx) + sinh(nx) And so e^(ix) = (coshx + sinhx)^i = cosh(ix) + sinh(ix) = cosx + isinx
There's other fun connections to be had also. If you're that comfortable with the complex math, then you might appreciate something _far_ later I have planned in the series: the tie-in to split-complex numbers. If you've had any linear algebra, it is fairly easy to verify that the square of the matrix 0 -1 1 0 is -1 times the identity matrix. We can use this matrix as i in the field of 2x2 square matrices. If we instead use j = 0 1 1 0 this gives hyperbolic geometry when plotted on the real and j axes instead of the circular geometry that results from i above. j^2 = 1. e^jx = cosh x + jsinh x
@@arithknot9740 Fascinating. Let C = 0 -1 1 0 Let H = 0 1 1 0 Then, C^2 = -I and H^2 = I where I is the identity matrix. Then (complex) exponential of matrix A can be written as: e^(CA) = cos(A) + Csin(A) e^(A) = cosh(A) + Hsinh(A) Am I correct? Another interesting observation. The matrix C transforms a point (x,y) into (-y,x). For unit circle, y = sinθ and x = cosθ. So the point (cosθ, sinθ) is transformed to (-sinθ, cosθ). Interestingly, the rotation matrix in 2 dimensions is cosθ -sinθ sinθ cosθ Plug in θ = 90° and you get C. Goes on to show rotation by 90° just like i. H transforms (x,y) to (y,x). Kind of an identity matrix because it doesn't scale the vector. But also not because it changes the point.
Some greater care has to be taken when you take e to the power of a 2x2 matrix. It does work nicely, but it's worth going through the steps to see why it works as you expect. Let me just leave you with a few leads for now: 1) Search for split complex numbers 2) The rotation matrix by θ is cosθ -sinθ sinθ cosθ which can be decomposed into its I and C parts (since cosθ and sinθ are just scalars) I cosθ + C sinθ The same can be done for the hyperbolic rotation matrix, rotating by an arbitrary hyperbolic angle φ: coshφ sinhφ sinhφ coshφ Which decomposes into I and H components: I coshφ + H sinhφ
I love the video! If you want help with future chapters, I'd love to help, although I might be under qualified. Thanks again!
when next vid?
With four kids and a side job, it's difficult to find the time/money/energy to work on it. I've spent some time on it, but I'm hoping to make a lot of progress on it over the upcoming holiday breaks.
Great job, can't tell you how much I enjoyed this video. Looking forward to the whole series being uploaded
bro i haven't seen better explanation on hyperbolic trig functions. Keep up the good work, King!
What a wonderful video, looking at hyperbolas a priori is something that I think would have really enlightened a lot of high school students, and even as an adult in STEM watching this video made something click like I was in 10th grade learning it for the first time. Absolutely brilliant delivery (accidental asmr?) and I can't wait for future content!!
I love your video; it is clean and easy to follow, it looks professional, and your voice is pleasant. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world. God bless you.
At 2: 47 you introduce the hyperbola but you don't explain how it relates to what has gone before. What you should have said is "Take a right angled triangle with hypotenuse h, and two sides a and b. let the side A be fixed to 1. Plot the graph showing the length of the hypotenuse h against the length of the other sideb . The equation of the line formed is derived from pythagoras . h2 = 1+b2. Now we have an explanation of the relevance of a hyperbola. But good video.
completly loved this cant wait for next part
This narration sounds so retro
That is incredible, i cant believe it is your firs video, i want to marathon this play-series already hahaha.
Thank you so much :)
Amazing explanation! Looking forward to part 2!
Great video
Phenomenal video, best explanation of hyperbolic trigonometry I’ve seen so far, I suppose someone with no knowledge of standard trigonometry could understand some, if not all of what was said in this video. I absolutely cannot wait for another episode in this amazing series. P.S. what software do you use to render these graphs, animations, and 3 dimensional graphs, thank you so much :)
Thank you so much. The software is mentioned at the very end. It's the manim python library originally developed by 3blue1brown's Grant Sanderson, which he released open source, called manim. I'm using the community edition.
Priceless ! 👍
Hi, a little idea: You can use \cosh, \sin, \ln etc. This keeps the letters from becoming "italic"/cursive in math mode. I think it looks a bit neater that way.
Fantastic video! Absolutely loved the pace and the exploration aspect of the exposition. I'm well past familiar with hyperbolas and hyperbolic space and yet you had my full atention at every moment. Just a really really great introduction to hyperbolas and a great teaser at the end. If you're thinking of making other videos, I will be here to watch them.
Why is this only 7 minutes 😭😭 it’s such high quality
