    1. Initial program 58.4

      \[0.5 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot \left(\sqrt{re \cdot re + im \cdot im} + re\right)}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied flip-+58.4

      \[\leadsto 0.5 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot \color{blue}{\frac{\sqrt{re \cdot re + im \cdot im} \cdot \sqrt{re \cdot re + im \cdot im} - re \cdot re}{\sqrt{re \cdot re + im \cdot im} - re}}}\]

    4. Simplified41.7

      \[\leadsto 0.5 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot \frac{\color{blue}{im \cdot im}}{\sqrt{re \cdot re + im \cdot im} - re}}\]
