Imaginary part in complex plane

• ${\displaystyle \operatorname {Im} \left({\frac {\sinh(x+iy)}{x+iy}}\right)}$

Real part in complex plane

• ${\displaystyle \operatorname {Re} \left({\frac {\sinh \left(x+iy\right)}{x+iy}}\right)}$

absolute magnitude

• ${\displaystyle \left|{\frac {\sinh(x+iy)}{x+iy}}\right|}$

First-order derivative

• ${\displaystyle {\frac {1-\sinh(z))^{2}}{z}}-{\frac {\sinh(z)}{z^{2}}}}$

Real part of derivative

• ${\displaystyle -\operatorname {Re} \left(-{\frac {1-(\sinh(x+iy))^{2}}{x+iy}}+{\frac {\sinh(x+iy)}{(x+iy)^{2}}}\right)}$

Imaginary part of derivative

• ${\displaystyle -\operatorname {Im} \left(-{\frac {1-(\sinh(x+iy))^{2}}{x+iy}}+{\frac {\sinh(x+iy)}{(x+iy)^{2}}}\right)}$

absolute value of derivative

• ${\displaystyle \left|-{\frac {1-(\sinh(x+iy))^{2}}{x+iy}}+{\frac {\sinh(x+iy)}{(x+iy)^{2}}}\right|}$

In terms of other special functions

• ${\displaystyle \operatorname {Sinhc} (z)={\frac {{\rm {KummerM}}\left(1,\,2,\,2\,z\right)}{{\rm {e}}^{z}}}}$ 

• ${\displaystyle \operatorname {Sinhc} (z)={\frac {{\it {HeunB}}\left(2,0,0,0,{\sqrt {2}}{\sqrt {z}}\right)}{{\rm {e}}^{z}}}}$ 

• ${\displaystyle \operatorname {Sinhc} (z)=1/2\,{\frac {{\rm {WhittakerM}}\left(0,\,1/2,\,2\,z\right)}{z}}}$ 

Series expansion

${\displaystyle \operatorname {Sinhc} z\approx (1+{\frac {1}{3}}{z}^{2}+{\frac {2}{15}}{z}^{4}+{\frac {17}{315}}{z}^{6}+{\frac {62}{2835}}{z}^{8}+{\frac {1382}{155925}}{z}^{10}+{\frac {21844}{6081075}}{z}^{12}+{\frac {929569}{638512875}}{z}^{14}+O\left({z}^{16}\right))}$
