EXAMPLE - Trigonometry Hyperbolic Arc Functions

This example illustrates how to apply inverse (arc) hyperbolic functions to your transformations.

Functions:

Item

Description

ASINH Function

Computes the arcsine of an input value for a hyperbolic angle measured in radians. The value can be a Decimal or Integer literal or a reference to a column containing numeric values.

ACOSH Function

Computes the arccosine of an input value for a hyperbolic angle measured in radians. The value can be a Decimal or Integer literal or a reference to a column containing numeric values.

ATANH Function

Computes the arctangent of an input value for a hyperbolic angle measured in radians. The value can be a Decimal or Integer literal or a reference to a column containing numeric values.

Also:

Description

ROUND Function

Rounds input value to the nearest integer. Input can be an Integer, a Decimal, a column reference, or an expression. Optional second argument can be used to specify the number of digits to which to round.

DEGREES Function

Computes the degrees of an input value measuring the radians of an angle. The value can be a Decimal or Integer literal or a reference to a column containing numeric values.

NULL Function

The NULL function generates null values.

Source:

In the following sample, input values are in radians. In this example, all values are rounded to two decimals for clarity.
