1. What is Inverse Log?

The inverse log (antilog) function calculates the value whose logarithm is a given number. It is the reverse operation of taking a logarithm and is essential in various mathematical and scientific calculations.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the inverse log formula:

Where:

• \( x \) — The logarithm value
• \( 10 \) — Base of the common logarithm

Explanation: The function raises 10 to the power of the input value x, effectively reversing the logarithmic operation.

3. Importance of Inverse Log Calculation

Details: Inverse log calculations are crucial in mathematics, engineering, and scientific fields where logarithmic scales are used. They help convert logarithmic values back to their original linear scale, which is essential for data interpretation and analysis.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the logarithmic value (x) in the input field. The calculator will compute and display the corresponding antilog value. The result represents the original number before the logarithm was applied.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the difference between log and antilog?
A: Logarithm finds the exponent, while antilog finds the value from the exponent. They are inverse operations of each other.

Q2: Can I calculate antilog for negative numbers?
A: Yes, antilog of a negative number results in a positive fraction between 0 and 1.

Q3: What are common applications of antilog?
A: Used in pH calculations, decibel measurements, Richter scale, and converting logarithmic data back to linear scale.

Q4: Is antilog the same for different bases?
A: No, antilog depends on the base. This calculator uses base 10. For other bases, the formula would be \( base^x \).

Q5: How precise are the results?
A: The calculator provides results with 6 decimal places precision, suitable for most scientific and engineering applications.
