Derivation

  1. Initial program 26.1

    \[\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied div-sub26.1

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{b \cdot c}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} - \frac{a \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\]
  4. Using strategy rm

  5. Applied add-sqr-sqrt26.1

    \[\leadsto \frac{b \cdot c}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} - \frac{a \cdot d}{\color{blue}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \cdot \sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]

  6. Applied times-frac24.8

    \[\leadsto \frac{b \cdot c}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} - \color{blue}{\frac{a}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}} \cdot \frac{d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]
  7. Removed slow pow expressions.
