# Function hypot
Calculate the hypotenusa of a list with values. The hypotenusa is defined as:
hypot(a, b, c, ...) = sqrt(a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + ...)
For matrix input, the hypotenusa is calculated for all values in the matrix.
## Syntax
```js
math.hypot(a, b, ...)
math.hypot([a, b, c, ...])
```
### Parameters
Parameter | Type | Description
--------- | ---- | -----------
`args` | ... number &#124; BigNumber |
### Returns
Type | Description
---- | -----------
number &#124; BigNumber | Returns the hypothenusa of the input values.
## Examples
```js
math.hypot(3, 4); // 5
math.hypot(3, 4, 5); // 7.0710678118654755
math.hypot([3, 4, 5]); // 7.0710678118654755
math.hypot(-2); // 2
