The inverse hyperbolic functions are the area hyperbolic sine "arsinh" (also called "asinh", or sometimes by the misnomer of "arcsinh") and so on.

Does this really apply to Shanle?

We used to have a guy that posted here who used words like "hyperbolic", and "clearly" and "moreover" and all that crap. I hated that guy.

I also hate math, so now every time I see "hyperbolic" I get to double-down, so to speak. LOL
