Returns the hyperbolic sine of a number.
Syntax
SINH(number)Arguments
numberrequired
Any real number for which you want to calculate the hyperbolic sine.
The SINH function calculates the hyperbolic sine of any real number. The hyperbolic sine is defined as (e^x - e^-x) / 2, where e is Euler's number.
=SINH(1)→1.175201194Calculates the hyperbolic sine of 1.
=SINH(-1)→-1.175201194Calculates the hyperbolic sine of -1.
