Fungrim entry: 61375f

U_{n - 1}\!\left(x\right) \sqrt{{x}^{2} - 1} = \frac{1}{2} \left({\left(x + \sqrt{{x}^{2} - 1}\right)}^{n} - {\left(x - \sqrt{{x}^{2} - 1}\right)}^{n}\right)

Assumptions:

n \in \mathbb{Z} \;\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\; x \in \mathbb{C}

TeX:

U_{n - 1}\!\left(x\right) \sqrt{{x}^{2} - 1} = \frac{1}{2} \left({\left(x + \sqrt{{x}^{2} - 1}\right)}^{n} - {\left(x - \sqrt{{x}^{2} - 1}\right)}^{n}\right)

n \in \mathbb{Z} \;\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\; x \in \mathbb{C}
