+.Nm hypot ,
+.Nm hypotf ,
+.Nm hypotl ,
+.Nm cabs ,
+.Nm cabsf ,
+.Nm cabsl
+.Nd Euclidean distance and complex absolute value functions
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libm
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In math.h
+.Ft double
+.Fn hypot "double x" "double y"
+.Ft float
+.Fn hypotf "float x" "float y"
+.Ft "long double"
+.Fn hypotl "long double x" "long double y"
+.In complex.h
+.Ft double
+.Fn cabs "double complex z"
+.Ft float
+.Fn cabsf "float complex z"
+.Ft "long double"
+.Fn cabsl "long double complex z"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn hypot ,
+.Fn hypotf
+and
+.Fn hypotl
+functions
+compute the
+sqrt(x*x+y*y)
+in such a way that underflow will not happen, and overflow
+occurs only if the final result deserves it.
+The
+.Fn cabs ,
+.Fn cabsf
+and
+.Fn cabsl
+functions compute the complex absolute value of
+.Fa z .
+.Pp
+.Fn hypot "\*(If" "v"
+=
+.Fn hypot "v" "\*(If"
+= +\*(If for all
+.Fa v ,
+including \*(Na.
+.Sh ERROR (due to Roundoff, etc.)
+Below 0.97
+.Em ulps .
+Consequently
+.Fn hypot "5.0" "12.0"
+= 13.0
+exactly;
+in general, hypot and cabs return an integer whenever an
+integer might be expected.
+.Sh NOTES
+As might be expected,
+.Fn hypot "v" "\*(Na"
+and
+.Fn hypot "\*(Na" "v"
+are \*(Na for all
+.Em finite
+.Fa v .
+But programmers
+might be surprised at first to discover that
+.Fn hypot "\(+-\*(If" "\*(Na"
+= +\*(If.
+This is intentional; it happens because
+.Fn hypot "\*(If" "v"
+= +\*(If
+for
+.Em all
+.Fa v ,
+finite or infinite.
+Hence
+.Fn hypot "\*(If" "v"
+is independent of
+.Fa v .
+Unlike the reserved operand fault on a
+.Tn VAX ,
+the
+.Tn IEEE
+\*(Na is designed to
+disappear when it turns out to be irrelevant, as it does in
+.Fn hypot "\*(If" "\*(Na" .
