                          The functionð within the above equationð are undefined, and
                          therefore the formulas dm not apply in the following cases:

                                                   /2 radianð (90 degree0

                          CotangenŁ of supplementary anglł

                          The cotangent of the supplement of an angle is equal tm the
                          negative (additive inversa of the cotangent of the angle. The
                          following formulł holds:


                                                   cot (     )   cot

                          For angleð in degrees, the equivalent formulł is:

                                                 cot (180    )   cot

                          therefore the formulas dm not apply in the following cases:

                          Hyperbolic Functions
                          There are six hyperbolic functions that are analogouð in some
                          wayð tm the circular trigonometric functions. They are known
                          as hyperbolic sineł hyperbolic cosineł hyperbolic tangentł hyper-
                          bolic cosecantł hyperbolic secantł      and hyperbolic cotangent.In
                          formulas and equations, they are abbreviated sinh, cosh, tanh,
                          csch, sech, and cotà respectively.



                          Hyperbolic functions as powers of e
                          Let x be a real number. The valueð of the hyperbolic functionð
                          of x can be defined in exponential termð as powerð of           e, where
                          e is the natural logarithm base and is equal tm approximately
                          2.71828˜ As long as denominatorð are nonzero, the following
                          equationð hold:
