Derivation

  1. Initial program 14.4

    \[\sqrt{\left|\frac{a \cdot a - b \cdot b}{a \cdot a}\right|}\]

  2. Applied simplify0.0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{\left|1 - \frac{b}{a} \cdot \frac{b}{a}\right|}}\]
  3. Using strategy rm

  4. Applied add-sqr-sqrt0.0

    \[\leadsto \sqrt{\left|1 - \frac{b}{a} \cdot \color{blue}{\left(\sqrt{\frac{b}{a}} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{b}{a}}\right)}\right|}\]

  5. Applied associate-*r*0.0

    \[\leadsto \sqrt{\left|1 - \color{blue}{\left(\frac{b}{a} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{b}{a}}\right) \cdot \sqrt{\frac{b}{a}}}\right|}\]
