Answer

$1$

Work Step by Step

Definitions of the Hyperbolic Functions ... $\displaystyle \tanh x=\frac{\sinh x}{\cosh x} =\frac{e^{x}-e^{-x}}{e^{x}+e^{-x}} \qquad \mathrm{s}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{c}\mathrm{h}\ x=\displaystyle \frac{1}{\cosh x}=\frac{2}{e^{x}+e^{-x}}$ ---- $\displaystyle \tanh^{2}x+\mathrm{s}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{c}\mathrm{h}^{2}x=(\frac{e^{x}-e^{-x}}{e^{x}+e^{-x}})^{2}+(\frac{2}{e^{x}+e^{-x}})^{2}$ $=\displaystyle \frac{e^{2x}-2+e^{-2x}+4}{(e^{x}+e^{-x})^{2}}$ $=\displaystyle \frac{e^{2x}+2+e^{-2x}}{e^{2x}+2+e^{-2x}}$ $=1$
