Evaluate log3^8, given log3^2 is equivalent to 0.631

elixir [45]

We will use the followin property of logarithms:

$log(a^b) = b log(a)$

So, we have

$log(3^2) = 2 log(3) = 0.631$

If you multiply both sides by 4, you get

$8log(3) = log(3^8) = 2.524$

$\tan( \alpha ) \: = \: \frac{h}{b}$
$\alpha \: = \: {22}^{0}$
$h \: = \: 450 \: ft$
Therefore,
$b \: = \: h \cot( \alpha )$
$b \: = \: 450 \: ft \: \times \: \cot( {22}^{0} )$
b = 450 ft × 2.47508685
b = 1,113.78908 ft
or,
b ≈ 1,114 ft.
