33.Sh NAME
34.Nm sinh ,
35.Nm sinhf
36.Nd hyperbolic sine functions
37.Sh SYNOPSIS
38.Fd #include <math.h>
39.Ft double
40.Fn sinh "double x"
41.Ft float
42.Fn sinhf "float x"
43.Sh DESCRIPTION
44The
45.Fn sinh
46function computes the hyperbolic sine of
47.Fa x .
48The
49.Fn sinhf
50function is a single precision version of
51.Fn sinh .
52.Sh RETURN VALUES
53The
54.Fn sinh
55and
56.Fn sinhf
57functions return the hyperbolic sine value unless
58the magnitude
59of
60.Fa x
61is too large; in this event, the global variable
62.Va errno
63is set to
64.Er ERANGE .
