Derivation

  1. Initial program 16.6

    \[\cos^{-1} \left(\sin \phi_1 \cdot \sin \phi_2 + \left(\cos \phi_1 \cdot \cos \phi_2\right) \cdot \cos \left(\lambda_1 - \lambda_2\right)\right) \cdot R\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied cos-diff3.6

    \[\leadsto \cos^{-1} \left(\sin \phi_1 \cdot \sin \phi_2 + \left(\cos \phi_1 \cdot \cos \phi_2\right) \cdot \color{blue}{\left(\cos \lambda_1 \cdot \cos \lambda_2 + \sin \lambda_1 \cdot \sin \lambda_2\right)}\right) \cdot R\]
  4. Using strategy rm

  5. Applied acos-asin3.7

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\frac{\pi}{2} - \sin^{-1} \left(\sin \phi_1 \cdot \sin \phi_2 + \left(\cos \phi_1 \cdot \cos \phi_2\right) \cdot \left(\cos \lambda_1 \cdot \cos \lambda_2 + \sin \lambda_1 \cdot \sin \lambda_2\right)\right)\right)} \cdot R\]

  6. Final simplification3.7

    \[\leadsto R \cdot \left(\frac{\pi}{2} - \sin^{-1} \left(\left(\cos \phi_2 \cdot \cos \phi_1\right) \cdot \left(\sin \lambda_1 \cdot \sin \lambda_2 + \cos \lambda_1 \cdot \cos \lambda_2\right) + \sin \phi_2 \cdot \sin \phi_1\right)\right)\]
