Sažetak
We compute upper and lower bounds for the approximation of certain values ξ of hyperbolic and trigonometric functions by rationals x/y such that x, y satisfy Diophantine equations. We show that there are infinitely many coprime integers x, y such that

|y ξ - x| (log log y)/(log y)

and a Diophantine equation holds simultaneously relating x, y and some integer z. Conversely, all positive integers x, y with y ≥ c0 solving the Diophantine equation satisfy
|y ξ - x| (log log y)/(log y)

Moreover, we approximate sin(πα) and cos(πα) by rationals in connection with solutions of a quadratic Diophantine equation when tan(πα/2) is a Liouville number.
