What is Math.sinh() in JavaScript?

Math in JavaScript is a built-in object that contains different methods and properties to perform mathematical operations. It contains a sinh() function , which is used to compute the hyperbolic sine of a specified angle.

Syntax

Math.sinh(param);

Parameter

  • param: This is the angle for which we want to compute the hyperbolic sine. Its type is Number, and it is measured in radians.

Number in JavaScript is a 64-bit double-precision value which is the same as a double in C# or Java.

Return value

  • Number: It returns the hyperbolic sine of the given angle stored in param. It is of the Number type.

  • +Infinity: The function returns this for positive Infinity as input.

  • -Infinity: The function returns this for negative Infinity as input.

Use the following formula to convert degrees to radians.

  • Radians = Degrees x π /180

where π = 3.14159, approximately.

Code

console.log("sinh(-1) = " + Math.sinh(-1));
console.log("sinh(0) = " + Math.sinh(0));
console.log("sinh(1) = " + Math.sinh(1));
console.log("sinh(∞) = " + Math.sinh(Infinity));
console.log("sinh(-∞) = " + Math.sinh(-Infinity));
