Math.abs(): This method returns the absolute (positive) value of a number. It takes one number parameter. If the number’s value is negative, the abs() method converted this number is positive. The positive parameter will remain the same.

Syntax: Math.abs(number)

Ex:

const number = -2;
console.log(Math.abs(number));
// Result: 2
const number2 = (10–100);
console.log(Math.abs(number2));
// Result: 90
const number3 = 40;
console.log(Math.abs(number3));
// Result: 40 . Remain same.

Math.sin(): This method returns the sine value of a number that calculates the trigonometry sine for the specified expression. It takes number as a parameter. If we pass another datatype it will return NaN.

Syntax: Math.sin(number)

Ex:

const number = 4;
console.log(Math.sin(number));
// Result: -0.7568024953079282
console.log(Math.sin(‘Javascript’));
//Result: NaN

Math.cos(): This method returns the cosine value of a number that calculates the trigonometry cosine for the specified expression. It takes a number as a parameter. If we pass another datatype it will return NaN.

Ex:

const number = 4;
console.log(Math.cos(number));
// Result: -0.6536436208636119
console.log(Math.cos(‘Javascript’));
//Result: NaN

Math.exp(): This javascript epx() function used to calculate the power of E. Where E is the Euler’s number approximately equal to 2.71828. It takes a number as an argument. If the argument is not a number it returns NaN.

Syntax: Math.exp(number)

Ex:

const num = 2;
console.log(Math.exp(num));
// Result: 7.38905609893065
console.log(Math.exp(-2));
// Result: 0.1353352832366127
console.log(Math.exp(‘javascript’));
// Result: NaN

Math.log(): This method returns the logarithmic value of a number that calculates the trigonometry logarithmic for the specified expression. It takes a number as a parameter. If we pass another datatype it will return NaN. If the parameter is 0, it returns negative infinity. When a parameter is a negative number or null, it will return NaN

Syntax: Math.log(number)

Ex:

const num = 2;
console.log(Math.log(num));
// Result: 0.6931471805599453
console.log(Math.log(-1));
// Result: NaN
console.log(Math.log(0))
// Result: -Infinity
