Aug 14, 2020 · As the title states, I need to be able to calculate logs (base $10$) on paper without a calculator. For example, how would I calculate $\\log(25)$?

Jan 10, 2021 · My teacher told me that the natural logarithm of a negative number does not exist, but $$\ln (-1)=\ln (e^ {i\pi})=i\pi$$ So, is it logical to have the natural logarithm of a negative number?

Problem $\\dfrac{\\log125}{\\log25} = 1.5$ From my understanding, if two logs have the same base in a division, then the constants can simply be divided i.e $125/25 = 5$ to result in ${\\log5} = 1.5$...

Jan 9, 2017 · For example, the following "proof" can be obtained if you're sloppy: \begin {align} e^ {\pi i} = -1 & \implies (e^ {\pi i})^2 = (-1)^2 & \text { (square both sides)}\\ & \implies e^ {2\pi i} = 1 & \text { …

Apr 30, 2016 · I was wondering how one would multiply two logarithms together? Say, for example, that I had: $$\\log x·\\log 2x < 0$$ How would one solve this? And if it weren't possible, what would its …
