Let $S$ be the unit sphere in $Bbb R^3$ with centre $(0, 0, 0)$



$sigma(u, v) = (cos v/cosh u,sin v/cosh u,tanh u)$



is a parametrization of $S$ minus the north and south poles.



Show that meridians and parallels on $S$ correspond under $sigma$ to perpendicular straight lines in the plane with coordinates $(u, v)$.
