1. **Problem:** Find the values of the following logarithms to four decimal places using the property of logarithms and the given table values.
2. **Formula and rules:**
- Use the logarithm product rule: $$\log_{10}(ab) = \log_{10} a + \log_{10} b$$
- Use the logarithm of powers of 10: $$\log_{10} 10^n = n$$
- Use the table values for logarithms of numbers between 1 and 10.
3. **Calculations:**
(1) $$\log_{10} 2150 = \log_{10} (2.15 \times 10^3) = \log_{10} 2.15 + \log_{10} 10^3$$
From the table, $$\log_{10} 2.15 = 0.3324$$
So,
$$\log_{10} 2150 = 0.3324 + 3 = 3.3324$$
(2) $$\log_{10} 184 = \log_{10} (1.84 \times 10^2) = \log_{10} 1.84 + \log_{10} 10^2$$
From the table, $$\log_{10} 1.84 = 0.2648$$
So,
$$\log_{10} 184 = 0.2648 + 2 = 2.2648$$
(3) $$\log_{10} 15.8 = \log_{10} (1.58 \times 10^1) = \log_{10} 1.58 + \log_{10} 10^1$$
From the table, $$\log_{10} 1.58 = 0.1987$$
So,
$$\log_{10} 15.8 = 0.1987 + 1 = 1.1987$$
(4) $$\log_{10} 0.0208 = \log_{10} (2.08 \times 10^{-2}) = \log_{10} 2.08 + \log_{10} 10^{-2}$$
From the table, $$\log_{10} 2.08 = 0.3181$$
So,
$$\log_{10} 0.0208 = 0.3181 - 2 = -1.6819$$
4. **Final answers:**
- $$\log_{10} 2150 = 3.3324$$
- $$\log_{10} 184 = 2.2648$$
- $$\log_{10} 15.8 = 1.1987$$
- $$\log_{10} 0.0208 = -1.6819$$
These results use the logarithm properties and table values to find precise logarithms.
