Table 6.4 Derivatives of the Inverse Hyperbolic Functions Note that the derivatives of tanh −1 x and coth −1 x are the same. Thus, when we integrate 1/ ⎛ ⎝ 1− x 2 ⎞ ⎠ , we need to select the proper antiderivative based on the domain of the functions and the values of x . Integration formulas involving the inverse hyperbolic functions are summarized as follows. ∫ 1 1+ u 2 du = sinh −1 u + C ∫ 1 u 1− u 2 du = −sech −1 | u | + C ∫ 1 u 2 −1 du = cosh −1 u + C ∫ 1 u 1+ u 2 du = −csch −1 | u | + C ∫ 1 1− u 2 du = ⎧ ⎩ ⎨ tanh −1 u + C if | u | <1 coth −1 u + C if | u | >1
