IMSINH

The IMSINH function calculates the inverse hyperbolic sine of a given complex number. Inverse hyperbolic sine of a complex number is the value whose hyperbolic sine is the given complex number. This function is useful in engineering applications that involve complex numbers.

Usage

Use the IMSINH formula with the syntax shown below, it has 1 required parameter:

=IMSINH(number)
Parameters:
  1. number (required):
    The complex number for which we want to calculate the inverse hyperbolic sine.

Examples

Here are a few example use cases that explain how to use the IMSINH formula in Google Sheets.

Calculate the inverse hyperbolic sine of a complex number

Common Mistakes

IMSINH not working? Here are some common mistakes people make when using the IMSINH Google Sheets Formula:

Providing non-complex number

The IMSINH function requires a complex number as input. Providing a non-complex number will result in an error.

Incorrectly formatted complex number

The complex number provided as input to the IMSINH function must be in the form x + yi. Any other format will result in an error.
