The Math.asinh()
static method returns the inverse hyperbolic sine of a number. That is,
πΌπππ.πππππ(π‘)=arsinh(x)=the unique y such that sinh(y)=x=ln(x+x2+1)\begin{aligned}\mathtt{\operatorname{Math.asinh}(x)} &= \operatorname{arsinh}(x) = \text{the unique } y \text{ such that } \sinh(y) = x \&= \ln\left(x + \sqrt{x2 + 1}\right)\end{aligned}
Syntax
Math.asinh(x)
Parameters
x
- : A number.
Return value
The inverse hyperbolic sine of x
.
Description
Because asinh()
is a static method of Math
, you always use it as Math.asinh()
, rather than as a method of a Math
object you created (Math
is not a constructor).
Examples
Using Math.asinh()
Math.asinh(-Infinity); // -Infinity
Math.asinh(-1); // -0.881373587019543
Math.asinh(-0); // -0
Math.asinh(0); // 0
Math.asinh(1); // 0.881373587019543
Math.asinh(Infinity); // Infinity
