MATLAB Function Reference

sinh

Hyperbolic sine of an argument in radians

Syntax

• Y = sinh(X)
  

Description

The sinh function operates element-wise on arrays. The function's domains and ranges include complex values. All angles are in radians.

Y = sinh(X) returns the hyperbolic sine of the elements of X.

Examples

Graph the hyperbolic sine function over the domain .

• x = -5:0.01:5;
  plot(x,sinh(x)), grid on
  
  
  
  
  
  

Definition

The hyperbolic sine can be defined as

Algorithm

sinh uses FDLIBM, which was developed at SunSoft, a Sun Microsystems, Inc. business, by Kwok C. Ng, and others. For information about FDLIBM, see http://www.netlib.org.
