(a)Find the position vector of \(E\) .
The volume of a tetrahedron is given by the formula
$$\text { volume } = \frac { 1 } { 3 } ( \text { area of base } ) \times ( \text { height } )$$
(b)Find the volume of the tetrahedron \(A B C D\) .
4.(a)Given that \(x > 0 , y > 0 , x \neq 1\) and \(n > 0\) ,show that
$$\log _ { x } y = \log _ { x ^ { n } } y ^ { n }$$
(b)Solve the following,leaving your answers in the form \(2 ^ { p }\) ,where \(p\) is a rational number.
(i) \(\log _ { 2 } u + \log _ { 4 } u ^ { 2 } + \log _ { 8 } u ^ { 3 } + \log _ { 16 } u ^ { 4 } = 5\)
(ii) \(\log _ { 2 } v + \log _ { 4 } v + \log _ { 8 } v + \log _ { 16 } v = 5\)
(iii) \(\log _ { 4 } w ^ { 2 } + \frac { 3 \log _ { 8 } 64 } { \log _ { 2 } w } = 5\)
