Derivation

  1. Initial program 61.2

    \[\frac{\log \left(1 - x\right)}{\log \left(1 + x\right)}\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied flip--60.8

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

  4. Applied log-div61.0

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

  5. Applied div-sub61.0

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

  6. Simplified61.0

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

  7. Taylor expanded around 0 1.0

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

  8. Simplified1.0

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

  9. Taylor expanded around 0 0.4

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\log 1 - \left(1 \cdot {x}^{2} + \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{{x}^{4}}{{1}^{2}}\right)}}{\mathsf{fma}\left(x, 1, \log 1 - \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{{x}^{2}}{{1}^{2}}\right)} - 1\]

  10. Final simplification0.4

    \[\leadsto \frac{\log 1 - \left(1 \cdot {x}^{2} + \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{{x}^{4}}{{1}^{2}}\right)}{\mathsf{fma}\left(x, 1, \log 1 - \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{{x}^{2}}{{1}^{2}}\right)} - 1\]
