Answer
Hyperbolic functions are mathematical concepts analogous to trigonometric functions and central to hyperbolic geometry. They are related to the equilateral hyperbola in the same way that trigonometric functions are related to the circle. Their development is attributed to Johann Heinrich Lambert's studies in the 18th century, further refined by mathematicians like Leonhard Euler and Adrien-Marie Legendre.
