The curve given by (t-sinh(t)cosh(t), 2 cosh(t)), t real.
The Catenary and Parabola are different curves that look similar; they are both "U" shaped and symmetrical, increasing infinitely on both sides to a minimum.
apparently, it is called catenoid.
One is the "Gateway To The West" arch in St. Louis, Missouri. It is also possible McDonalds Restaurants have a double inverted catenary arch shape. It resembles a letter M in script form.
The catenary problem involves determining the shape of a flexible chain or cable hanging under its own weight, known as a catenary curve. Mathematically, this curve is described by the hyperbolic cosine function, (y = a \cosh\left(\frac{x}{a}\right)), where (a) is a constant related to the tension and weight of the chain. The catenary shape is significant in engineering and architecture, particularly in the design of arches and suspension bridges, as it represents the most efficient form for distributing stress. The problem highlights the relationship between geometry, physics, and materials under gravitational forces.
No shape is mathematical really unless it has been created by a mathematical formula, but is certainly a geometric shape. But anything which is a 2D or 3D shape is geometric. My improvement: A catenary curve from a mathematical equation such as cosh x, is a mathematical and natural shape. Maby each other arch can be approximated by a mathematical formula.

The general formula of a catenary is y = a*cosh(x/a) = a/2*(ex/a + e-x/a) cosh is the hyperbolic cosine function
A catenary is the shape formed by a hanging chain or cable under its own weight. In wind turbine alignment, the catenary is important because it helps to position the turbine blades in a way that maximizes their efficiency in capturing wind energy. By aligning the turbine blades along the catenary curve, the blades can better adapt to changing wind conditions and generate more power.

A catenary is the curve formed by slack wire - telephone cables are a good example. So a catenary tow is one where, simply put, the towline is attached to shackles of anchor cable in order to ensure that a belly of towline (providing spring) hangs between the two ships.
If: A=Horizontal distance betwen ends (at same height) B=Depth of catenary C=radius of curvature at lowest point L=length along catenary M=Mass per unit length Tm=Tension at ends of catenary To=Tension at lowest point. (Also horizontal component of tension at any point) Then: C=To/M, and B=C(cosh(A/2C)-1)
