Laws of Exponents

This page covers the fundamental laws of exponents, which are crucial for simplifying algebraic expressions and solving equations involving powers.

Definition: An exponent indicates how many times a base number is multiplied by itself. For example, 2³ means 2 × 2 × 2.

The page lists the key exponent laws:

1. a^m × a^n = a^(m+n)
2. (a^m)^n = a^(mn)
3. (ab)^n = a^n × b^n
4. a^(-n) = 1 / a^n

Example: 2³ × 2⁴ = 2³⁺⁴ = 2⁷ = 128

The page also covers negative exponents and fractional exponents, providing a comprehensive overview of Potenzgesetze.

Highlight: Understanding these laws is essential for simplifying complex expressions and solving advanced mathematical problems efficiently.

Scientific Notation and Practice Problems

This final page focuses on scientific notation and provides practice problems to reinforce the concepts learned throughout the guide.

Definition: Scientific notation is a way of writing very large or very small numbers using powers of 10. For example, 4,600,000,000 can be written as 4.6 × 10⁹.

The page explains how to convert between standard and scientific notation:

• For numbers greater than 1, move the decimal point left and use a positive exponent.
• For numbers less than 1, move the decimal point right and use a negative exponent.

Example: 0.00003 = 3 × 10⁻⁵

The page concludes with a set of practice problems covering all the topics discussed in the guide, providing students with an opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills.

Highlight: Regular practice with a variety of problem types is key to mastering these mathematical concepts and preparing for more advanced studies in mathematics.

This comprehensive guide serves as an excellent resource for students studying Trigonometrie and exponents, offering clear explanations, practical examples, and opportunities for practice.
