    Exponential Form
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on rewriting logarithmic equations in exponential form. The equation Log(6) 1294 = 4 is confirmed, with a suggestion that it might be Log(6) 1296 instead. The relationship between logarithms and exponents is emphasized, specifically that log_b(a) = c implies b^c = a. Additionally, participants evaluate Log(4) 64, noting that 4^3 equals 64, and Log(16) 4, recognizing that 16 raised to the power of 1/2 equals 4. The conversation highlights the fundamental properties of logarithms and their exponential counterparts.

Rewrite in exponential form:
Log(6) 1294 = 4
Log(w) v = t

Ln(1/4) = x
Evaluate

Log(4) 64 = ?

Log(16) 4 = ?

sure that isn't 1296 ?Log(w) v = t

if you meant w to be the base of the logarithm ... $w^t = v$

Ln(1/4) = x

$e^x = \dfrac{1}{4}$
Evaluate

Log(4) 64 = ?

note that $4^3 = 64$

Log(16) 4 = ?

note $16^{1/2} = 4$

logarithm to exponential relationship ...

$\log_b(a) = c \implies b^c = a$
 
Thanks
 
Thread 'Video on imaginary numbers and some queries'
Hi, I was watching the following video. I found some points confusing. Could you please help me to understand the gaps? Thanks, in advance! Question 1: Around 4:22, the video says the following. So for those mathematicians, negative numbers didn't exist. You could subtract, that is find the difference between two positive quantities, but you couldn't have a negative answer or negative coefficients. Mathematicians were so averse to negative numbers that there was no single quadratic...
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
Thread 'Unit Circle Double Angle Derivations'
Here I made a terrible mistake of assuming this to be an equilateral triangle and set 2sinx=1 => x=pi/6. Although this did derive the double angle formulas it also led into a terrible mess trying to find all the combinations of sides. I must have been tired and just assumed 6x=180 and 2sinx=1. By that time, I was so mindset that I nearly scolded a person for even saying 90-x. I wonder if this is a case of biased observation that seeks to dis credit me like Jesus of Nazareth since in reality...
