Derivation

1. Initial program 52.3

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

3. Applied flip-+52.3

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

4. Applied associate-/l/52.3

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

5. Simplified0.4

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

7. Applied associate-/r*0.2

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

8. Simplified0.2

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

9. Taylor expanded around 0 0.1

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

10. Final simplification0.1

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