Derivation

  1. Initial program 52.2

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

  2. Simplified52.2

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

  4. Applied flip--52.2

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

  5. Applied associate-/l/52.2

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

  6. Simplified0.4

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

  8. Applied associate-/l*0.2

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

  9. Final simplification0.2

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