Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if b < 3.882128856352725e-108

    1. Initial program 20.9

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

    2. Initial simplification20.9

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

    4. Applied clear-num21.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{\frac{2 \cdot a}{\sqrt{(\left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot \left(-c\right) + \left(b \cdot b\right))_*} - b}}}\]
    5. Using strategy rm

    6. Applied *-un-lft-identity21.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{1}{\frac{2 \cdot a}{\color{blue}{1 \cdot \left(\sqrt{(\left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot \left(-c\right) + \left(b \cdot b\right))_*} - b\right)}}}\]

    1. Initial program 51.8

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