+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These functions calculate the inverse hyperbolic cosine of
+.IR x ;
+that is the value whose hyperbolic cosine is
+.IR x .
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success, these functions return the inverse hyperbolic cosine of
+.IR x .
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is +1, +0 is returned.
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is positive infinity, positive infinity is returned.
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is less than 1,
+a domain error occurs,
+and the functions return a NaN.
+.SH ERRORS
+See
+.BR math_error (7)
+for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred
+when calling these functions.
+.P
+The following errors can occur:
+.TP
+Domain error: \fIx\fP is less than 1
+.I errno
+is set to
+.BR EDOM .
+An invalid floating-point exception
+.RB ( FE_INVALID )
+is raised.
