37.Sh NAME
38.Nm sinh
39.Nd hyperbolic sine function
40.Sh SYNOPSIS
41.Fd #include <math.h>
42.Ft double
43.Fn sinh "double x"
44.Ft float
45.Fn sinhf "float x"
46.Sh DESCRIPTION
47The
48.Fn sinh
49function computes the hyperbolic sine of
50.Fa x .
51.Sh RETURN VALUES
52The
53.Fn sinh
54function returns the hyperbolic sine value unless
55the  magnitude
56of
57.Fa x
58is too large; in this event, the global variable
59.Va errno
60is set to
61.Er ERANGE .
