<% function 'math.abs($number)', 'abs($number)', returns: 'number' do %>
Returns the [absolute value][] of `$number`. If `$number` is negative, this
returns `-$number`, and if `$number` is positive, it returns `$number` as-is.
[absolute value]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_value

Returns whether `$number1` and `$number2` have compatible units.
If this returns `true`, `$number1` and `$number2` can safely be [added][],
[subtracted][], and [compared][]. Otherwise, doing so will produce errors.

## Distance Functions
<% function 'math.abs($number)', 'abs($number)', returns: 'number' do %>
Returns the [absolute value][] of `$number`. If `$number` is negative, this
returns `-$number`, and if `$number` is positive, it returns `$number` as-is.

to each `$number`. For example, for three numbers *a*, *b*, and *c*, this
returns the square root of *a² + b² + c²*.
The numbers must either all have compatible units, or all be unitless. And
since the numbers' units may differ, the output takes the unit of the first

Returns the [tangent][] of `$number`.
`$number` must be an angle (its units must be compatible with `deg`) or

<% impl_status dart: '1.25.0', libsass: false, ruby: false %>
Returns the [arccosine][] of `$number` in `deg`.
`$number` must be unitless.
[arccosine]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_trigonometric_functions#Basic_properties

<% function 'math.atan($number)', returns: 'number' do %>
<% impl_status dart: '1.25.0', libsass: false, ruby: false %>
Returns the [arctangent][] of `$number` in `deg`.

Returns the [2-argument arctangent][] of `$y` and `$x` in `deg`.
`$y` and `$x` must have compatible units or be unitless.
[2-argument arctangent]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atan2
<% fun_fact do %>
`atan2($y, $x)` is distinct from `atan($y / $x)` because it preserves the
quadrant of the point in question. For example, `atan2(1, -1)` corresponds
to the point `(-1, 1)` and returns `135deg`. In contrast, `atan(1 / -1)` and
`atan(-1 / 1)` resolve first to `atan(-1)`, so both return `-45deg`.
<% end %>
<% example(autogen_css: false) do %>
