exponential and natural logarithm functions Catenary and exponential functionsAny nonelastic, uniform cable held at its ends will droop in the shape of a catenary. As shown here, the catenary is asymptotic in the negative and positive directions to graphs of, respectively, exponential decay (y = e−x/2) and exponential growth (y = ex/2).
