    Exponential Form
Click For 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
 
Here is a little puzzle from the book 100 Geometric Games by Pierre Berloquin. The side of a small square is one meter long and the side of a larger square one and a half meters long. One vertex of the large square is at the center of the small square. The side of the large square cuts two sides of the small square into one- third parts and two-thirds parts. What is the area where the squares overlap?
