Logarithms
Forerunner to logs was Prosthaphaeresis. Werner used it in astronomy for calculations.
Find sin 7º = tan 7º cos 7º (1/2 chord of 14º )
= 0.1227845 · 0.9925462This becomes our multiplication problem.
2cosAcosB = cos (A – B) + cos (A + B)2sinAsinB = cos (A – B) - cos (A + B)2sinAcosB = sin (A – B) + sin (A + B)2cosAsinB = sin (A – B) - sin (A + B)
Example from astronomy using
2cosAcosB = cos (A – B) + cos (A + B)

Let 2cos A = 0.1227845, then A = 86.4802681cos B = 0.9925462, then B = 7.0000000
A – B = 79.4802681 and A + B = 93.4802681

P moves with constant velocity so it covers any unit interval in the same time.
Q moves so that it covers each interval in the same time period.

Q moves so that it covers each interval in the same time period. What is implied about the velocity? Q moves so that it covers each interval in the same time period. What is implied about the velocity? The velocity is proportional to the distance from Q.

Logarithms 5Please take out a sheet of paper and fold it in half ten times.
Logarithms were developed in three ways -
• as an artificial number. Napier/Briggs 1614
• as an area measure of a hyperbola. Newton 1660.
• as an infinite series. Mercator 1670.

Logarithms Artificial Numbers The previous discussion on on Prosthaphaeresis and the geometry of motion were contributing factors.
Historically the comparison of Arithmetic and Geometric progressions like the one used by Napier was a contributing factor.
Indeed there is evidence on Babylonian tablets of this comparison.
![Page 20: 1 Cultural Connection Puritans and Seadogs Student led discussion. The Expanse of Europe – 1492 –1700](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec85503460f94bd5131/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Logarithms Artificial Numbers 2The Babylonians were close to developing logarithms.They had developed the following table!
Note the first column is a geometric progression and the second is arithmetic.
To multiply 16 times 64 from the left column they would add 4 and 6 from the right column to get 10 and look up the corresponding number 1024 on the left

Logarithms Artificial Numbers 3Logarithms were developed for plane and spherical trig calculations in astronomy.
Napier chose as his base 0.9999999. To avoid decimals he multiplied by 10 7.
Hence N = 10 7 (1 – 1/ 10 7)L where N is a number and L is its Napier Log.
They were used in developing a table of log sines using a circle of radius 10,000,000 = 10 7 since the best trig tables had seven digit accuracy. There was also a need to keep the base of the log system small to help in interpolation.

Logarithms Artificial Numbers 5From the previous problem by Prostaphaeresis
sin 7º = tan 7º · cos 7º
tan 7º · 10 7 = 1227846 and the Log = 20973240
The sum = 21048058
cos 7º · 10 7 = 9925462 and the Log = 74818
And 10 7 (1 – 1/10 7 )21048058 = 0.1218693 = sin 7º

Logarithms Artificial Numbers 6Henry Briggs traveled to Scotland to pay his respects to Napier. They became friends and Briggs convinced Napier that if log 1 = 0 and log 10 = 1 life would be better. Hence Briggsian or common logs were born.
The first tables to 14 places were published in 1624. These tables were used until 1920 when they were replaced by a set of 20 place tables.

Modern method -sin 7º = tan 7º · cos 7º
Log tan 7º = - 0.9108562
And inverse log sin ( – 0.9141055) = 7º .
The sum = - 0.9141055
Log cos 7º = - 0.0032493

§9–9 Problem of Points
“Problem of the Points” at end, if time.
Helen and Tom are playing a game with stakes of a “Grotto’s” pizza. They flip a fair coin and every time it comes up heads Helen wins a point and every time it comes up tails, Tom wins a point. The first one to get five points wins the pizza. Helen is ahead 3 to 2 when the bell rings for Math History class. How do they divide the pizza fairly?
