This » VECTOR LOG LOG « is made of mahogany with scales on celluloid
veneer. It came in a brown leather case with a double-sided cardboard in
it:  CONVERSION TABLES on one side, MATHEMATICAL FORMULAS on the other. 

The DEFINITIVE FORMS for the HYPERBOLIC FUNCTIONS are:

CosH(X) = ( exp(+X) + exp(-X) ) / 2   <==  this is the "Chain Line"
SinH(X) = ( exp(+X) - exp(-X) ) / 2       ( eg. suspension bridge )
TanH(X) =  SinH(X)  / CosH(X)
 exp(X) =  SinH(X)  + CosH(X)
      1 =  CosH2(X) - SinH2(X)

CosH(X) =  SinH(X) / TanH(X)  =  sqrt( 1 + SinH2(X) )  =  H(X)

Using the Hyperbolic Functions:
Start with value on the Sh scales ==>> reading SinH on D scale,
  start with value on the D scale ==>> reading ArcSinH on Sh.
Start with value on the Th scale  ==>> reading TanH on D scale,
  start with value on the D scale ==>> reading ArcTanH on Th.

Historical Remarks ...

This "DIETZGEN" is made by KEUFFEL & ESSER. Scales on front are the same
as  K&E Model 4080-3.  But the back side is different: The TRIGONOMETRIC
SCALES are DECIMAL and the lower body has the HYPERBOLIC SCALES instead.
The CURSOR ( with blocks made from sheet metal ) is a "DIETZGEN"-Patent.
