Appreciation Assalamualaikum.
As this Additional Mathematics Project Work for 2013 had been completed. I would like to show some appreciation to those people who have kindly to helped me to finish this project. First of all, I would like to thank my parent. Both my parent have supported all the materials to be used to finish this project. With their help and efforts, I have been able to finish this project right on time. Also, a special thanks to my Additional Mathematics subject teacher, Puan Rosmazarah bt Sulong. With lots of patience, she had thought me so much about the subject. She had also given many useful knowledge that have somehow motivated me. Lastly, I would also like to thank to all my group member and my classmates, especially Tan Siew Woon, Vicgneesh, Muhd Fazhan, Zaliq Syauqi, Ridhwan Rusydi Azri, Muhammad Adam, Muhammad Aizat Azri, and Ahmad Sobri for completing this project together. Teamwork made this project easier and is able to be finished at shorter time.

Introduction
One of the mathematical concepts which we must be familiar with is logarithms. Before the days of scientific calculators, logarithms were used to multiply or divide extreme numbers using mathematical tables. For these calculations, ten was the most common base to use. Logarithm to the base of ten is also called the common logarithm. Other bases such as two, five and eight can also be used. The ancient Babylonians had used bases up to 60.
Logarithms have many applications in various fields of studies. In the early 17th century it was rapidly adopted by navigators, scientists, engineers and astronomers to perform computations more easily.
PART 1
History of Logarithm
The logarithm of a number is the exponent to which another fixed value, the base, must be raised to produce that number. For example, the logarithm of 1000 to base 10 is 3, because 1000 is 10 to the power 3: 1000 = 10 × 10 × 10 = 103. More generally, if x = by, then y is the logarithm of x to base b, and is written y = logb(x), so log10(1000) = 3. The Babylonians sometime in 2000–1600 BC may have invented the quarter square multiplication algorithm to multiply two numbers using only addition, subtraction and a table of squares. However it could not be used for division without an additional table of reciprocals. Large tables of quarter squares were used to simplify the accurate multiplication of large numbers from 1817 onwards until this was superseded by the use of computers.
Michael Stifel published Arithmetica integra in Nuremberg in 1544, which contains a table of integers and powers of 2 that has been considered an early version of a logarithmic table.
In the 16th and early 17th centuries an algorithm called prosthaphaeresis was used to approximate multiplication and division. This used the trigonometric identity
or similar to convert the multiplications to additions and table lookups. However logarithms are more straightforward and require less work. It

multiplying polynomials. Factoring Polynomials This is the most important section of all the preliminaries. Factoring polynomials will appear in pretty much every chapter in this course. Without the ability to factor polynomials you will be unable to complete this course. Rational Expressions In this section we will define rational expressions and discuss adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing them. Complex Numbers Here is a very quick primer on complex numbers and how to manipulate them…
the second one is complete and used for purpose of forecasting. By taking logarithm of each series, discrepancy of measurement is eliminated. Besides, monthly bilateral exchange rate return is specified by taking first difference of logarithm exchange rate series and corresponding denotations are given below. Table Denotations of variable LB/F: logarithm of exchange rate for France against Belgium. LB/G: logarithm of exchange rate for Germany against Belgium. LF/G: logarithm of exchange rate…
A slide rule The slide rule was invented around 1620–1630, shortly after the publication of the concept of the logarithm . It is a handoperated analog computer for doing multiplication and division. As slide rule development progressed, added scales provided reciprocals, squares and square roots, cubes and cube roots, as well as transcendental functions such as logarithms and exponentials, circular and hyperbolic trigonometry and other functions . Aviation is one of the few fields where slide rules are still in widespread use…
1 EXPERIMENT 3 Hydrogen Peroxide And Iodide Kinetics Read before laboratory: Textbook: Chapter 13; 13.1-13.5 Principles The iodine clock reaction is a classic experiment used to demonstrate the effects of concentration and temperature on the speed of the reaction between iodide, I-, and hydrogen peroxide, H2O2. This reaction proceeds according to the equation: 2 I-(aq) + 2H+ (aq) + H2O2 (aq) I2 (aq) + H2O (l) (Eq. 1) It is known that the reaction proceeds more rapidly in the presence of acid…

fraction of the entire population made up of species i S = numbers of species encountered ∑ = sum from species 1 to species S Note: The power to which the base e (e = 2.718281828.......) must be raised to obtain a number is called the natural logarithm (ln) of the number. To calculate the index: 1. Divide the number of individuals of species #1 you found in your sample by the total number of individuals of all species. This is Pi 2. Multiply the fraction by its natural log (P1 * ln P1) 3.…
