The following exercises are intended to derive the fundamental properties of the natural log starting from the definition ln ( x ) = 1 x d t t , using properties of the definite integral and making no further assumptions.

Use the identity ln ( x ) = 1 x d t t to derive the identity ln ( 1 x ) = ln x .

We may assume that x > 1 , so 1 x < 1 . Then, 1 1 / x d t t . Now make the substitution u = 1 t , so d u = d t t 2 and d u u = d t t , and change endpoints: 1 1 / x d t t = 1 x d u u = ln x .

Pretend, for the moment, that we do not know that e x is the inverse function of ln x , but keep in mind that ln x has an inverse function defined on ( , ) . Call it E . Show that E ' ( t ) = E ( t ) .

x = E ( ln ( x ) ) . Then, 1 = E ' ( ln x ) x or x = E ' ( ln x ) . Since any number t can be written t = ln x for some x , and for such t we have x = E ( t ) , it follows that for any t , E ' ( t ) = E ( t ) .
