To determine the sign that makes the statement true, we need to compare the two values: 81,000 and 8.1 * 10^4.

First, let's calculate what \( 8.1 \times 10^4 \) equals:

\[
8.1 \times 10^4 = 8.1 \times 10000 = 81000
\]

Now we can compare the two values:

- 81,000
- 8.1 * 10^4 = 81,000

Since both values are equal, the appropriate sign to use is:

\[
81,000 \, = \, 8.1 \times 10^4
\]

So the answer is \( = \).
