Trigonometric functions
[edit] Circular functions The prefix arc used for inverse circular trigonometric functions is the abbreviation for arcus. | Symbol | LaTeX | Symbol | LaTeX | Symbol | LaTeX | Symbol | LaTeX | | sin | \sin | arcsin | \arcsin | csc | \csc | arccsc | \arccsc | | cos | \cos | arccos | \arccos | sec | \sec | arcsec | \arcsec | | tan | \tan | arctan | \arctan | cot | \cot | arccot | \arccot | |
Hyperbolic functions The abbreviations arcsinh, arccosh, etc., are commonly used for inverse hyperbolic trigonometric functions (area hyperbolic functions), even though they are misnomers, since the prefix arc is the abbreviation for arcus, while the prefix ar stands for area. | Symbol | LaTeX | Symbol | LaTeX | Symbol | LaTeX | Symbol | LaTeX | | sinh | \sinh | arsinh | \operatorname{arsinh} | csch | \operatorname{csch} | arcsch | \operatorname{arcsch} | | cosh | \cosh | arcosh | \operatorname{arcosh} | sech | \operatorname{sech} | arsech | \operatorname{arsech} | | tanh | \tanh | artanh | \operatorname{artanh} | coth | \coth | arcoth | \operatorname{arcoth} | |
