The **`hypot()` method** is a static method of the `java.lang.Math` library. It takes two numbers and returns the square root of $x^{2}$ + $y^{2}$ without any intermediate underflow or overflow. 

There are special cases regarding this function:
* The result will be `positiveinfinity` if any of the parameters are infinite.

* The result will be `NaN` if any of the parameters are NaN and none of them are infinite.
# 
## Syntax
---
```java
public static double hypot(double x, double y)
```
---

## Parameters
This method will take two numbers of primitive data type `double`:
* `x` contains the first argument.
* `y` contains the second argument.

## Return value
This function will return the answer of √($x^{2}$ + $y^{2}$) without any overflow or underflow of `double` type.

## Example
This code illustrates how to use the `hypot()` method to compute sqrt ($x^{2}$ + $y^{2}$). 
* We initialized `num1= 32176.2` and `num2= -298.77`, then called the function to perform the calculations. 
* It returns `32177.5870`.

The hypot() method is a static method of the java.lang.Math library. It takes two numbers and returns the square root of x2x^{2}x2 + y2y^{2}y2 without any intermediate underflow or overflow. There are special cases regarding this function:   The result will be positiveinfinity if any of the parameters are infinite.   The result will be NaN if any of the parameters are NaN and none of them are infinite.    Syntax  public static double hypot(double x, double y)   Parameters This method will take two numbers of primitive data type double:  x contains the first argument. y contains the second argument.  Return value This function will return the answer of √(x2x^{2}x2 + y2y^{2}y2) without any overflow or underflow of double type. Example This code illustrates how to use the hypot() method to compute sqrt (x2x^{2}x2 + y2y^{2}y2).  We initialized num1= 32176.2 and num2= -298.77, then called the function to perform the calculations. It returns 32177.5870.
