Derivation

  1. Initial program 0.4

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

  3. Applied difference-of-squares0.4

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

  4. Applied associate-*l*0.4

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

  5. Final simplification0.4

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