Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if x < -0.024894411913591076 or 0.023314860336167698 < x

    1. Initial program 0.9

      \[\frac{1 - \cos x}{\sin x}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied add-exp-log0.9

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{e^{\log \left(1 - \cos x\right)}}}{\sin x}\]

    if -0.024894411913591076 < x < 0.023314860336167698

    1. Initial program 59.7

      \[\frac{1 - \cos x}{\sin x}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{24} \cdot {x}^{3} + \left(\frac{1}{240} \cdot {x}^{5} + \frac{1}{2} \cdot x\right)}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
  4. Removed slow pow expressions.
