Java Math - sinh() Method

The Java sinh() method returns hyperbolic sine of a value. The hyperbolic sine of x is defined as:

where e is an Euler's number.

In special cases it returns the following:

• If the argument is NaN, then the result is NaN.
• If the argument is infinite, then the result is an infinity with the same sign as the argument.
• If the argument is zero, then the result is a zero with the same sign as the argument.

Syntax

public static double sinh(double arg)

Parameters

Return Value

Returns the hyperbolic sine of a value.

Exception

NA.

Example:

In the example below, sinh() method is used to find out the hyperbolic sine of a value.

public class MyClass {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
  System.out.println(Math.sinh(0));   
  System.out.println(Math.sinh(2));
  System.out.println(Math.sinh(4));     
 }
}

The output of the above code will be:

0.0
3.626860407847019
