Logarithms

Theory, Introduction

1. Scientific Notation:

A number written in the form 𝑎 × 10𝑛 , where 1 ≤ 𝑎 ≤ 10 and n is an


integer, is called the scientific notation.

2. Logarithm of a Real Number:


If 𝑎 𝑥 = 𝑦 than x is called the logarithm of y to the base “a’ and is written
as

𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑎 𝑦 = 𝑥, 𝑎 > 0, 𝑎 ≠ 1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑦 > 0

3. Characteristic of logarithm of the Number:


An integral part which is positive for a number greater than 1 and
negative for a number less than 1, is called the characteristic of logarithm of the
number.

4. Mantissa of the logarithm of the Number:


A decimal part which is always positive, is called the mantissa of the
logarithm of the.

5. Antilogarithm:
The number whose logarithm is given is called antilogarithm,
6. Laws of logarithm

𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑎 (𝑚𝑛) = 𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑎 (𝑚) + 𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑎 (𝑛)
