SECH function

Returns the hyperbolic secant of an angle

Syntax

SECH(number)

Square brackets indicate optional arguments.

Arguments

ArgumentRequiredMeaning
numberYesNumber is the angle in radians for which you want the hyperbolic secant.30

Try SECH

Evaluate SECH with a stated domain

=SECH(A2)

SECH is 1/COSH(x). Its value is positive and does not change when the input sign changes. Edit A2 to try another input in the stated domain.
