Derivation

  1. Initial program 28.3

    \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]
  2. Using strategy rm
  3. Applied flip-+28.3

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{\left(-b\right) \cdot \left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} \cdot \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}}{2 \cdot a}\]
  4. Applied associate-/l/28.3

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\left(-b\right) \cdot \left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} \cdot \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{\left(2 \cdot a\right) \cdot \left(\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}\right)}}\]
  5. Simplified0.4

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{c \cdot \left(a \cdot 4\right)}}{\left(2 \cdot a\right) \cdot \left(\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}\right)}\]
  6. Using strategy rm
  7. Applied associate-/r*0.3

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{c \cdot \left(a \cdot 4\right)}{2 \cdot a}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}\]
  8. Final simplification0.3

    \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}{2 \cdot a}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}\]
