NAME
acosh, acoshf, acoshl - inverse hyperbolic cosine function
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double acosh(double x);
float acoshf(float x);
long double acoshl(long double x);
Link with -lm.

DESCRIPTION
These functions calculate the inverse hyperbolic cosine of x; that is the value whose hyperbolic cosine is x.
RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return the inverse hyperbolic cosine of x. If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned. If x is +1, +0 is returned. If x is positive infinity, positive infinity is returned. If x is less than 1, a domain error occurs, and the functions return a NaN.
ERRORS
See math_error(7) for information on how to determine whether an error
has occurred when calling these functions.
The following errors can occur:
Domain error: x is less than 1
errno is set to EDOM. An invalid floating-point exception
(FE_INVALID) is raised.
