Derivation

  1. Initial program 58.4

    \[\frac{1}{2} \cdot \log \left(\frac{1 + x}{1 - x}\right)\]

  2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.7

    \[\leadsto \frac{1}{2} \cdot \color{blue}{\left(\left(2 \cdot {x}^{2} + \left(2 \cdot x + \log 1\right)\right) - 2 \cdot \frac{{x}^{2}}{{1}^{2}}\right)}\]

  3. Simplified0.7

    \[\leadsto \frac{1}{2} \cdot \color{blue}{\left(2 \cdot \left({x}^{2} + x\right) + \left(\log 1 - 2 \cdot \frac{{x}^{2}}{{1}^{2}}\right)\right)}\]

  4. Final simplification0.7

    \[\leadsto \frac{1}{2} \cdot \left(2 \cdot \left({x}^{2} + x\right) + \left(\log 1 - 2 \cdot \frac{{x}^{2}}{{1}^{2}}\right)\right)\]
