Derivation

1. Initial program 0.4

   \[\left(\left(\left(x.re \cdot x.re\right) - \left(x.im \cdot x.im\right)\right) \cdot x.re\right) - \left(\left(\frac{\left(x.re \cdot x.im\right)}{\left(x.im \cdot x.re\right)}\right) \cdot x.im\right)\]
2. Using strategy rm

3. Applied difference-of-squares0.4

   \[\leadsto \left(\color{blue}{\left(\left(\frac{x.re}{x.im}\right) \cdot \left(x.re - x.im\right)\right)} \cdot x.re\right) - \left(\left(\frac{\left(x.re \cdot x.im\right)}{\left(x.im \cdot x.re\right)}\right) \cdot x.im\right)\]

4. Applied associate-*l*0.4

   \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\left(\frac{x.re}{x.im}\right) \cdot \left(\left(x.re - x.im\right) \cdot x.re\right)\right)} - \left(\left(\frac{\left(x.re \cdot x.im\right)}{\left(x.im \cdot x.re\right)}\right) \cdot x.im\right)\]

5. Final simplification0.4

   \[\leadsto \left(x.re + x.im\right) \cdot \left(\left(x.re - x.im\right) \cdot x.re\right) - \left(x.re \cdot x.im + x.im \cdot x.re\right) \cdot x.im\]
