What is Math.sinh() in Ruby?
The sinh() function in Ruby calculates and returns the hyperbolic sine of a number. To be more specific, it returns the hyperbolic sine of a number in radians.
The figure below shows the mathematical representation of the sinh() function.
Note: This function is present in the
Mathmodule.
Syntax
sinh(num)
Parameter
This function requires a number that represents an angle in radians as a parameter.
The following formula converts degrees to radians.
radians = degrees * ( pi / 180.0 )
Return value
sinh() returns a number’s hyperbolic sine (radians), which is sent as a parameter.
Example
#positive number in radiansputs "The value of sinh(2.3) : ", Math.sinh(2.3)#negative number in radiansputs "The value of sinh(-2.3) : ", Math.sinh(-2.3)#converting the degrees angle into radians and then applying sinh()#degrees = 90#PI = 3.14159265result = 90.0 * (Math::PI / 180.0)puts "The value of sinh(#{result}) : ", Math.sinh(result)
