# Function sinh
Calculate the hyperbolic sine of a value,
defined as `sinh(x) = 1/2 * (exp(x) - exp(-x))`.
For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise.
## Syntax
```js
math.sinh(x)
```
### Parameters
Parameter | Type | Description
--------- | ---- | -----------
`x` | number &#124; BigNumber &#124; Complex &#124; Unit &#124; Array &#124; Matrix | Function input
### Returns
Type | Description
---- | -----------
number &#124; BigNumber &#124; Complex &#124; Array &#124; Matrix | Hyperbolic sine of x
## Examples
```js
math.sinh(0.5); // returns number 0.5210953054937474
