To do antilog on a scientific calculator, the usual method is:
- First, press the "2nd" or "SHIFT" key.
- Then press the "log" key (this key commonly has "10^x" written above it).
- Enter the number whose antilog you want to calculate.
- Close the bracket if needed and press "=" or "ENTER".
This works because the antilog is the inverse of the log function and corresponds to raising 10 to the power of the entered number. For example, if you want to find the antilog of 3, you would do 10^3 which equals 1000 by this method. If you're working with natural logarithms (ln), you do the same but use the "ln" key and its corresponding "e^x" antilog function accessed via the "2nd" or "SHIFT" key. So, the key is to use the inverse function key for log or ln on your scientific calculator, usually accessed with "2nd" or "SHIFT" before pressing log or ln.
