Can this equation be simplified further?

$begingroup$


I'm trying to simplify the following equation:



$y = dfrac{1-2exp(-x)cos(x)+exp(-2x)}{1+2exp(-x)sin(x)-exp(-2x)}$



I suspect that a simpler form using complex exponents exists, but I can't find it.



For context, this equation describes the effective conductivity due to the skin effect of a flat conductor as a function of its thickness. I just removed some scale factors for simplicity. The underlying differential equation gives rise to expressions of the form $exp(pm(1+i)x)$, which is where the $sin(x)$ and $cos(x)$ came from.

            Nice! Would it be possible to rewrite this using $tan$ or $tanh$? Unfortunately $sinh(x)$ and $cosh(x)$ cause numerical issues (overflow) for large values of $x$.

            If you want you can divide the top and bottom by $cosh(x)$ to get a $tanh(x)$ but this makes both the numerator and denominator more complicated.
