To show the identity sinh⁡(2x)=2cosh⁡xsinh⁡x\sinh(2x) = 2 \cosh x \sinh x, we will start with the Right Hand Side (RHS) and simplify it to the Left Hand Side (LHS).

  1. Write the RHS using the definitions of hyperbolic cosine and sine.

    The definitions are cosh⁡x=ex+e−x2\cosh x = \frac{e^x + e^{-x}}{2} and sinh⁡x=ex−e−x2\sinh x = \frac{e^x - e^{-x}}{2}.

    RHS=2cosh⁡xsinh⁡x\text{RHS} = 2 \cosh x \sinh x RHS=2(ex+e−x2)(ex−e−x2)\text{RHS} = 2 \left(\frac{e^x + e^{-x}}{2}\right) \left(\frac{e^x - e^{-x}}{2}\right)
  2. Multiply the terms.

    RHS=2(ex+e−x)(ex−e−x)4\text{RHS} = 2 \frac{(e^x + e^{-x})(e^x - e^{-x})}{4} RHS=(ex+e−x)(ex−e−x)2\text{RHS} = \frac{(e^x + e^{-x})(e^x - e^{-x})}{2}

    Using the difference of squares formula (a+b)(a−b)=a2−b2(a+b)(a-b) = a^2 - b^2:

    RHS=(ex)2−(e−x)22\text{RHS} = \frac{(e^x)^2 - (e^{-x})^2}{2} RHS=e2x−e−2x2\text{RHS} = \frac{e^{2x} - e^{-2x}}{2}
  3. Recognize this as the definition of sinh⁡(2x)\sinh(2x).

    The definition of sinh⁡u\sinh u is eu−e−u2\frac{e^u - e^{-u}}{2}. With u=2xu = 2x:

    RHS=sinh⁡(2x)\text{RHS} = \sinh(2x)

    Since RHS = LHS, the identity is proven.

    The final answer is Shown\boxed{\text{Shown}}.
