The document defines logarithms as the exponent that a fixed number (the base) must be raised to in order to equal the value. It provides basic formulae for logarithms including the properties that the logarithm of 1 is 0, the logarithm of the base is 1, and multiplying logarithms is equivalent to adding their exponents. The behavior of logarithms depends on whether the base is greater than, less than, or equal to 1, and how this affects the logarithm as the value increases or decreases.

Definition: Basic formulae: Behaviour:
ax = N loga N = x loga1 = 0 When a > 1, x increases as N increases; where a > 0, a 1 logaa = 1 logaN as N 0+ and consequently N > 0 a loga N = N When 0 < a < 1, x decreases when a = 10, common logarithm loga (mn) = logam + logan as N increases ; loga (m/n) = logam logan logaN as N 0+ when a = e, Naperian logarithm n logaN > 0 logab mn = loga m b when a > 1 and N > 1 logam = (logbm) (logab) or 0 < a < 1 and 0 < N < 1 1 logaN < 0 logba = log a b when 0 < a < 1 and N > 1 or a > 1 and 0 < N < 1.
