The question asks the student to rigorously prove that a given equation or expression involving logarithms always holds, typically requiring algebraic manipulation with change-of-base or logarithmic laws.
If $a , b , c$ are real numbers $> 1$, then show that $$\frac { 1 } { 1 + \log _ { a ^ { 2 } b } \frac { c } { a } } + \frac { 1 } { 1 + \log _ { b ^ { 2 } c } \frac { a } { b } } + \frac { 1 } { 1 + \log _ { c ^ { 2 } a } \frac { b } { c } } = 3$$
Let $g$ be the function defined by $$\begin{aligned}
g : ] - \pi ; \pi [ & \longrightarrow \mathbf { C } \\
\theta & \longmapsto e ^ { \mathrm { i } x \theta } \int _ { 0 } ^ { + \infty } \frac { t ^ { x - 1 } } { 1 + t e ^ { \mathrm { i } \theta } } \mathrm {~d} t
\end{aligned}$$ where $x$ is a fixed element of $]0;1[$. Deduce that $$\int _ { 0 } ^ { + \infty } \frac { t ^ { x - 1 } } { 1 + t } \mathrm {~d} t = \frac { \pi } { \sin ( \pi x ) }$$
Let t be a real number. The equalities $$\begin{aligned}
& x = e ^ { 2 \cos t } \\
& y = e ^ { 3 \sin t }
\end{aligned}$$ are given. Accordingly, which of the following gives the relationship between $x$ and y that is satisfied for every real number t? A) $\ln ^ { 2 } x + \ln ^ { 2 } y = 4$ B) $\ln ^ { 2 } x + \ln ^ { 2 } y = 9$ C) $9 \ln ^ { 2 } x + 2 \ln ^ { 2 } y = 27$ D) $\ln ^ { 2 } x + 4 \ln ^ { 2 } y = 28$ E) $9 \ln ^ { 2 } x + 4 \ln ^ { 2 } y = 36$
