NAME acosh - inverse hyperbolic cosine SYNOPSIS acosh(x [,eps]) TYPES x real, x >= 1 eps nonzero real, defaults to epsilon() return nonnegative real DESCRIPTION Returns the acosh of x to a multiple of eps with error less in absolute value than .75 * eps. acosh(x) is the nonnegative real number v for which cosh(v) = x. It is given by acosh(x) = ln(x + sqrt(x^2 - 1)) EXAMPLE > print acosh(2, 1e-5), acosh(2, 1e-10), acosh(2, 1e-15), acosh(2, 1e-20) 1.31696 1.3169578969 1.316957896924817 1.31695789692481670862 LIMITS none LIBRARY NUMBER *qacosh(NUMBER *x, NUMBER *eps) SEE ALSO asinh, atanh, asech, acsch, acoth, epsilon
