Description

Because cosh() is a static method of Math, you always use it as Math.cosh(), rather than as a method of a Math object you created (Math is not a constructor).

Examples

Using Math.cosh()

js

Math.cosh(-Infinity); // Infinity
Math.cosh(-1); // 1.5430806348152437
Math.cosh(-0); // 1
Math.cosh(0); // 1
Math.cosh(1); // 1.5430806348152437
