The ACOSH function returns the inverse hyperbolic cosine of a number.

This is one of the worksheet function. It can be used as a worksheet function in Excel.

Return value

This function returns the inverse hyperbolic cosine of a number.

Syntax


=ACOSH(number)

The number must be greater than or equal to 1. The inverse hyperbolic cosine is the value whose hyperbolic cosine is number, so ACOSH(COSH(number)) equals number.

Note: The number must be greater than or equal to 1. Otherwise #NUM! returns an error.
If number is not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned.
