Answer

$(\cosh x+\sinh x)^{n} =\cosh nx +\ sinh nx$

Work Step by Step

As we know, $\cosh(x) = \dfrac{e^{x} + e^{-x}}{2}$ and $\sinh(x) = \dfrac{e^{x} - e^{-x}}{2}$ Thus, $(\dfrac{e^{x} + e^{-x}}{2} + \dfrac{e^{x} - e^{-x}}{2} )^{n}=(\dfrac{2e^{x}}{2})^{n}$ or, $= (e^{x})^{n}$ or, $=e^{nx}$ or, $=\dfrac{2e^{nx}}{2}$ Thus, $\dfrac{e^{nx} + e^{-nx}}{2}+\dfrac{e^{nx} - e^{-nx}}{2}=\cosh nx +\sinh nx$
