Abstract
We present elementary proofs, using only Jacobi's triple product identity, of four identities of Ramanujan and eight identities of Hirschhorn relating to the 2-dissection and the 4-dissection of Ramanujan's continued fraction and its reciprocal, and of two identities from Ramanujan's famous list of forty.
