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. Simplified0.4

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

4. Applied associate-*r*0.4

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

5. Applied *-commutative0.4

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

6. Applied distribute-rgt-out--0.4

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

8. Applied *-commutative0.4

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

9. Final simplification0.4

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