Derivation

  1. Initial program 37.6

    \[R \cdot \sqrt{\left(\left(\lambda_1 - \lambda_2\right) \cdot \cos \left(\frac{\phi_1 + \phi_2}{2}\right)\right) \cdot \left(\left(\lambda_1 - \lambda_2\right) \cdot \cos \left(\frac{\phi_1 + \phi_2}{2}\right)\right) + \left(\phi_1 - \phi_2\right) \cdot \left(\phi_1 - \phi_2\right)}\]

  2. Applied simplify4.2

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{\left(\cos \left(\frac{\phi_1 + \phi_2}{2}\right) \cdot \left(\lambda_1 - \lambda_2\right)\right)^2 + \left(\phi_1 - \phi_2\right)^2}^* \cdot R}\]
  3. Using strategy rm

  4. Applied add-cbrt-cube4.3

    \[\leadsto \sqrt{\left(\color{blue}{\sqrt[3]{\left(\cos \left(\frac{\phi_1 + \phi_2}{2}\right) \cdot \cos \left(\frac{\phi_1 + \phi_2}{2}\right)\right) \cdot \cos \left(\frac{\phi_1 + \phi_2}{2}\right)}} \cdot \left(\lambda_1 - \lambda_2\right)\right)^2 + \left(\phi_1 - \phi_2\right)^2}^* \cdot R\]

  5. Applied simplify4.3

    \[\leadsto \sqrt{\left(\sqrt[3]{\color{blue}{{\left(\cos \left(\frac{\phi_2 + \phi_1}{2}\right)\right)}^{3}}} \cdot \left(\lambda_1 - \lambda_2\right)\right)^2 + \left(\phi_1 - \phi_2\right)^2}^* \cdot R\]
