Complex.Sin(Complex) Method

Definition

Returns the sine of the specified complex number.

C#
public static System.Numerics.Complex Sin(System.Numerics.Complex value);

Parameters

value
Complex

A complex number.

Returns

The sine of value.

Examples

The following example illustrates the Sin method. It shows that passing the value returned by the Asin method to the Sin method returns the original Complex value.

C#
using System;
using System.Numerics;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      Complex[] values = { new Complex(2.3, 1.4),
                           new Complex(-2.3, 1.4),
                           new Complex(-2.3, -1.4),
                           new Complex(2.3, -1.4) };
      foreach (Complex value in values)
         Console.WriteLine("Sin(Asin({0})) = {1}",
                            value, Complex.Sin(Complex.Asin(value)));
   }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//       Sin(Asin((2.3, 1.4))) = (2.3, 1.4)
//       Sin(Asin((-2.3, 1.4))) = (-2.3, 1.4)
//       Sin(Asin((-2.3, -1.4))) = (-2.3, -1.4)
//       Sin(Asin((2.3, -1.4))) = (2.3, -1.4)

Remarks

The Sin method for complex numbers corresponds to the Math.Sin method for real numbers.

The Sin method calculates the sine of the complex number a + bi as x + yi, where:

  • x is sina×coshb
  • y is cosa×sinhb
