About This Feature
Overview
The SINH function in WPS Spreadsheet returns the hyperbolic sine of a number and is useful for math calculations, engineering analysis, and formula-based worksheet work on Windows.
Core capabilities include:
- Enter
=SINH(number)to calculate the hyperbolic sine of a single value. - Use cell references, cross-sheet references, and nested formulas for more complex worksheet models.
- Recalculate results automatically when referenced data changes.
This feature is suitable for math practice, engineering data processing, and spreadsheet analysis that needs repeated recalculation.
System Requirements
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Operating system | A Windows device that can run WPS Office normally |
| App version | The latest version of WPS Office is recommended |
| Network | No mandatory internet connection is required for local function calculation; downloading, installation, and account-related actions require internet access |
| Other | You need access to WPS Spreadsheet and an editable worksheet cell |
Download & Installation
Before using the SINH function, install WPS Office on your Windows device and open WPS Spreadsheet.
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Official download | WPS Office Free Download |
| Check after installation | Launch WPS Office, open WPS Spreadsheet, and type =SINH( in a cell to confirm the formula input environment is available |

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | In WPS Spreadsheet, you can enter =SINH( directly in a worksheet cell for hyperbolic sine calculations, with support for parameters, cell references, cross-sheet references, nested formulas, and automatic recalculation when data changes. | Excel provides the SINH(number) function to return the hyperbolic sine of a number for spreadsheet math and trigonometry work. | The official Google Docs product page focuses on online document creation, collaboration, templates, smart chips, and file import, but it does not describe an equivalent worksheet SINH function in Docs. | Notion formulas can perform calculations with database properties, built-ins, and functions, but the official help content focuses on database formulas rather than traditional worksheet cell functions. | Acrobat supports calculations in PDF form fields, but its official guidance is centered on form field calculations rather than worksheet-based SINH analysis. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: Direct worksheet-cell formula entry for SINH calculations in a spreadsheet environment. Distinct: Supports cross-sheet references and nested formulas for ongoing worksheet models. | Compared with WPS: Excel also provides a dedicated SINH function, so the function scope is similar for this calculation. | Compared with WPS: Google Docs emphasizes document collaboration and content creation instead of worksheet SINH function input on its product page. | Compared with WPS: Notion formulas are oriented toward database properties and formula fields, not spreadsheet-style cell formula entry. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat calculations are mainly designed for PDF form fields instead of general spreadsheet function analysis. |

Overall Conclusion
WPS is a practical fit when you want to enter the SINH function directly in worksheet cells on Windows and keep calculations linked to referenced data. Other products support formulas, collaboration, or form calculations in their own contexts, but their workflows differ from a spreadsheet SINH function scenario.
Use Cases
| No. | Scenario | Suitable For | Main Need | How WPS Helps |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Math function practice | Students and teachers | Quickly verify hyperbolic sine results | Enter =SINH(number) in a cell and view the result immediately |
| 2 | Engineering data calculation | Analysts and engineers | Link function results to referenced values | Use cell references or nested formulas for repeated calculations |
| 3 | Multi-sheet analysis | Finance and research users | Calculate across data stored in multiple sheets | Use cross-sheet references and let results update automatically |
