.BI "float sinhf(float " x );
.BI "long double sinhl(long double " x );

.SH DESCRIPTION
These functions return the hyperbolic sine of
.IR x ,
which
is defined mathematically as:
.P
.nf
sinh(x) = (exp(x) \- exp(\-x)) / 2
.fi
.SH RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return the hyperbolic sine of
.IR x .
.P
If
.I x
is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
.P
If
.I x
is +0 (\-0), +0 (\-0) is returned.
.P
If
.I x
is positive infinity (negative infinity),
positive infinity (negative infinity) is returned.
.P
If the result overflows,
a range error occurs,
and the functions return
.BR HUGE_VAL ,
.BR HUGE_VALF ,
or
.BR HUGE_VALL ,
respectively, with the same sign as
.IR x .
.\"
.\" POSIX.1-2001 documents an optional range error (underflow)
.\" for subnormal x;
.\" glibc 2.8 does not do this.
.SH ERRORS
See
.BR math_error (7)
for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred
when calling these functions.
.P
The following errors can occur:
.TP
Range error: result overflow
.I errno
is set to
.BR ERANGE .
An overflow floating-point exception
.RB ( FE_OVERFLOW )
is raised.
