Derivation

1. Initial program 0.6

   \[\cos^{-1} \left(\frac{1 - 5 \cdot \left(v \cdot v\right)}{v \cdot v - 1}\right)\]
2. Using strategy rm

3. Applied add-exp-log0.6

   \[\leadsto \color{blue}{e^{\log \left(\cos^{-1} \left(\frac{1 - 5 \cdot \left(v \cdot v\right)}{v \cdot v - 1}\right)\right)}}\]
4. Using strategy rm

5. Applied add-sqr-sqrt0.6

   \[\leadsto e^{\color{blue}{\sqrt{\log \left(\cos^{-1} \left(\frac{1 - 5 \cdot \left(v \cdot v\right)}{v \cdot v - 1}\right)\right)} \cdot \sqrt{\log \left(\cos^{-1} \left(\frac{1 - 5 \cdot \left(v \cdot v\right)}{v \cdot v - 1}\right)\right)}}}\]

6. Final simplification0.6

   \[\leadsto e^{\sqrt{\log \left(\cos^{-1} \left(\frac{1 - \left(v \cdot v\right) \cdot 5}{v \cdot v - 1}\right)\right)} \cdot \sqrt{\log \left(\cos^{-1} \left(\frac{1 - \left(v \cdot v\right) \cdot 5}{v \cdot v - 1}\right)\right)}}\]
