Your x component is cosh t and y component is sinht and as cosh 2 t sinh 2 t = 1 ,so its equation is x 2 y 2 = 1

Hint: We are looking for an equation stating the connection between the coordinates of r(t).
Note that a = e t can be any positive number.
So, take x = a + 1 / a 2 and y = a 1 / a 2 , and calculate x 2 y 2
Also, remember x>0.
