Math.acosh()

Baseline Widely available

The Math.acosh() static method returns the inverse hyperbolic cosine of a number. That is,

∀ x ≥ 1 , 𝙼𝚊𝚝𝚑.𝚊𝚌𝚘𝚜𝚑 ( 𝚡 ) = arcosh ( x ) = the unique  y ≥ 0  such that  cosh ( y ) = x = ln ( x + x2 − 1 ) \begin{aligned}\forall x \geq 1,\;\mathtt{\operatorname{Math.acosh}(x)} &= \operatorname{arcosh}(x) = \text{the unique } y \geq 0 \text{ such that } \cosh(y) = x\\&= \ln\left(x + \sqrt{x^2 - 1}\right)\end{aligned} Try it
console.log(Math.acosh(0.999999999999));
// Expected output: NaN

console.log(Math.acosh(1));
// Expected output: 0

console.log(Math.acosh(2));
// Expected output: 1.3169578969248166

console.log(Math.acosh(2.5));
// Expected output: 1.566799236972411
Syntax Parameters
x

A number greater than or equal to 1.

Return value

The inverse hyperbolic cosine of x. If x is less than 1, returns NaN.

Description

Because acosh() is a static method of Math, you always use it as Math.acosh(), rather than as a method of a Math object you created (Math is no constructor).

Examples Using Math.acosh()
Math.acosh(0); // NaN
Math.acosh(1); // 0
Math.acosh(2); // 1.3169578969248166
Math.acosh(Infinity); // Infinity
