Theorem relogmul

Description: The natural logarithm of the product of two positive real numbers is the sum of natural logarithms. Property 2 of Cohen p. 301, restricted to natural logarithms. (Contributed by Steve Rodriguez, 25-Nov-2007)

Ref Expression
Assertion relogmul ⊢ A ∈ ℝ + ∧ B ∈ ℝ + → log ⁡ A ⁢ B = log ⁡ A + log ⁡ B

Proof
