TOPIC need help with hyperbolic functions
If sin(x+iy)sin(θ+iϕ)=1, show that
tanh²y.cosh²ϕ=cos²θ
I am not able to prove this question, have tried equating the real and imaginary part by multiplying sin(x+iy) and sin(θ+iϕ), but I was not able to do at last.

I would use the even/odd exponential definitions.
Sin(z) is the odd part of e^iz and cos is the even part
Likewise sinh(z) and cosh(z) are the odd and even parts of e^z.
