standard_description: Construct an equilateral triangle, a square, and a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle.
problem_activity: Task
Below is a picture of the functions $f(x) = \log_b{x}$ and $g(x) = b^x$. In the application below, the base b varies between 1 and 2 (by hundredths) and pressing the "play" button will run through all possible values of b.
For which values of $b$ do the two graphs appear not to meet?
For which values of $b$ do the two graphs appear to meet in two points?
Check by evaluating the functions $f$ and $g$ that the two graphs meet at $x=e$ when $b = e^{\frac{1}{e}}$.
