asinh

Inverse hyperbolic sine

Syntax

Y = asinh(X)


Description

Y = asinh(X) returns the inverse hyperbolic sine for each element of X.

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

More About

Inverse Hyperbolic Sine

For real values $$x$$ in the domain of all real numbers, the inverse hyperbolic sine satisfies

$${\sinh }^{-1}\left(x\right)=\log \left(x+\sqrt{x^2+1}\right).$$

For complex numbers $$z=x+iy$$, the call asinh(z) returns complex results.
