JavaScript Math

The JavaScript math object provides several constants and methods to perform mathematical operation. Unlike date object, it doesn't have constructors.

JavaScript Math Methods

Let's see the list of JavaScript Math methods with description.

MethodsDescription
abs()It returns the absolute value of the given number.
acos()It returns the arccosine of the given number in radians.
asin()It returns the arcsine of the given number in radians.
atan()It returns the arc-tangent of the given number in radians.
cbrt()It returns the cube root of the given number.
ceil()It returns a smallest integer value, greater than or equal to the given number.
cos()It returns the cosine of the given number.
cosh()It returns the hyperbolic cosine of the given number.
exp()It returns the exponential form of the given number.
floor()It returns largest integer value, lower than or equal to the given number.
hypot()It returns square root of sum of the squares of given numbers.
log()It returns natural logarithm of a number.
