-.SH DESCRIPTION
-These functions return
-.RI sqrt( x * x + y * y ).
-This is the length of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle
-with sides of length
-.I x
-and
-.IR y ,
-or the distance of the point
-.RI ( x , y )
-from the origin.
-.P
-The calculation is performed without undue overflow or underflow
-during the intermediate steps of the calculation.
-.\" e.g., hypot(DBL_MIN, DBL_MIN) does the right thing, as does, say
-.\" hypot(DBL_MAX/2.0, DBL_MAX/2.0).
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-On success, these functions return the length of the hypotenuse of
-a right-angled triangle
-with sides of length
-.I x
-and
-.IR y .
-.P
-If
-.I x
-or
-.I y
-is an infinity,
-positive infinity is returned.
-.P
-If
-.I x
-or
-.I y
-is a NaN,
-and the other argument is not an infinity,
-a NaN is returned.
-.P
-If the result overflows,
-a range error occurs,
-and the functions return
-.BR HUGE_VAL ,
-.BR HUGE_VALF ,
-or
-.BR HUGE_VALL ,
-respectively.
-.P
-If both arguments are subnormal, and the result is subnormal,
-.\" Actually, could the result not be subnormal if both arguments
-.\" are subnormal? I think not -- mtk, Jul 2008
-a range error occurs,
-and the correct result is returned.
-.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
-Range error: result overflow
-.I errno
-is set to
-.BR ERANGE .
-An overflow floating-point exception
-.RB ( FE_OVERFLOW )
-is raised.
-.TP
-Range error: result underflow
-An underflow floating-point exception
-.RB ( FE_UNDERFLOW )
-is raised.
-.IP
-These functions do not set
-.I errno
-for this case.
