Derivation

  1. Initial program 7.6

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

  2. Simplified7.6

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(3, x.re \cdot \left(-x.im \cdot x.im\right), {x.re}^{3}\right)}\]
  3. Using strategy rm

  4. Applied distribute-rgt-neg-in7.6

    \[\leadsto \mathsf{fma}\left(3, x.re \cdot \color{blue}{\left(x.im \cdot \left(-x.im\right)\right)}, {x.re}^{3}\right)\]

  5. Applied associate-*r*0.2

    \[\leadsto \mathsf{fma}\left(3, \color{blue}{\left(x.re \cdot x.im\right) \cdot \left(-x.im\right)}, {x.re}^{3}\right)\]

  6. Final simplification0.2
