F. Logarithmic FunctionsThe TI-89 will graph the natural logarithm, y=ln x, and the common logarithm, y=log x. However, graphing functions in other bases requires the use of the Change of Base Property.
1. Natural Logarithms and Common Logarithms
The natural logarithm function is accessed by entering
![]()
. The common logarithm can be accessed via
, but also can by typed in using the
keys.
2. Other Bases
