Note: Here we are going to study about the logarithms of positive numbers, whose base will always be a positive number. If a*= y, then in logarithmic form logay = x, whero a> 0, a 1. Examples: = 4=64 . logy 64= 3 a gag *. loge 2 =a 2s ; = 0.125 2, log, 0.125 = Result Logarithm of 1 is 0 at every base i.e. log,1 = 0. Result 2: Logarithm of a number to the same base is always 1 i.e. logea = 1. Logarithm of a product: fm and n are two numbers then log, mn = log, m + log n. Example: log, 35 = log, (5 x 7).= log, 5 + log, 7. Logarithm of Ratio or Quotient of two numbers If mand n are two numbers. Then logs S = logg m — logy n. Logarithm of power of a number If mand n are two numbers, then Joga m® = n logs m = Illustration 1: Solve log (x + 4) + log (x — 4) = log 3. Solution: log (x + 4) (x- 4) = log 3 But negative value is not allowed -. x = +19. = Illustration 2: Find x from the equation a’. c= b™"" Solution: Taking log of both sides, we have, xlog a ~ 2x log ¢ = (3x + 1) log b Fz eee) Lox (log a - 2 log ¢~3 log b) = log b x=_—_gb_ loga - 2loge -3logb logb . “oa(aret?)

Two parts of logarithm Characteristic Characteristic is the integral part of the common logarithm. (a) To find the characteristic of number greater than one “ characteristic is one less than the number of digits to the left of the decimal point in the given number". (b) To find the characteristic of a number less than one: “Characteristic is one more than the number of zeroes between the decimal point and the first significant digit of the number and is negative Example: Number: Charactoristic 423.539 2 4.23639 0 0.423539 7 0,00423539 3 Mantissa For finding the mantissa we use logarithmic tables. The mantissa is always taken positive, Example: If the mantissa of 4567 is 0.6597 then log 4567 = 3.6597 log 456.7 = 2.6597 log 0.04567 =2.6597 Antilogarithm The corresponding number of a given logarithm is known as Anti-logarithm. From definition. If log x = y, than antilog of y = x.Wg How to insert decimal point ? Case 1: If the characteristic of the logarithm is positive, then: “Insert the decimal point at the (n+ 1)” digit, where n = charactoristic”, Case 2:.If the characteristic of the logarithm is negative insert the decimal point so that the first significant digit is at n" place, where n = characteristic”. = Mlustration Iflog 2 = 0.3010 and log 3 = 0.4771, then find tho number of digits in 6”. Solution: Let x = 6” then log x = 17 log 6 = 17 log (2 x 3) = 17(0.3010 + 0.4771) = 17 x 0.7781 = 13.2277. ~v characteristic is 13, therefore number of digits in 6” is 13 + 1 = 14, = Illustration 4: Find the cube root of 11 upto 4 places of decimal.
