Trigonometric and Hyperbolic functions
The following list contains the functions that you can use to calculate trigonometric and hyperbolic values.
acos(x)
This function computes the arc cosine of x, in the interval [0, pi] radians. The valid input domain for x is [-1, 1]. If x is outside this domain, the behavior is undefined.
Example
This example returns 1.5707963267948966.
... | eval n=acos(0)
The following example converts the acos(0) from radians to degrees. This example returns 90.0000000003.
... | eval degrees=acos(0)*180/pi()
acosh(x)
This function computes the arc hyperbolic cosine of x radians. The valid input domain for x is [1, ∞). If x is less than 1, the behavior is undefined.
Example
This example returns 1.3169578969248166.
... | eval n=acosh(2)
asin(x)
This function computes the arc sine of x, in the interval [-pi/2, +pi/2] radians. The valid input domain for x is [-1, 1]. If x is outside this domain, the behavior is undefined.
Example
This example returns 1.5707963267948966.
... | eval n=asin(1)
The following example converts the asin(1) from radians to degrees. This example returns 90.0000000003.
... | eval degrees=asin(1)*180/pi()
asinh(x)
This function computes the arc hyperbolic sine of x radians. There are no restrictions on the input domain for x.
Example
This example returns 0.881373587019543.
... | eval n=asinh(1)
atan(x)
This function computes the arc tangent of x, in the interval [-pi/2, +pi/2] radians. There are no restrictions on the input domain for x.
Example
This example returns 0.4636476090008061.
... | eval n=atan(0.50)
atanh(x)
This function computes the arc hyperbolic tangent of x radians. The valid input domain for x is (-1, 1). If x is outside this domain, the behavior is undefined.
Example
This example returns 0.5493061443340549.
