Derivation

  1. Initial program 58.1

    \[\left(0.5 \cdot \cos re\right) \cdot \left(e^{0.0 - im} - e^{im}\right)\]
  2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.8

    \[\leadsto \left(0.5 \cdot \cos re\right) \cdot \color{blue}{\left(-\left(\frac{1}{3} \cdot {im}^{3} + \left(\frac{1}{60} \cdot {im}^{5} + 2 \cdot im\right)\right)\right)}\]
  3. Simplified0.8

    \[\leadsto \left(0.5 \cdot \cos re\right) \cdot \color{blue}{\left(\left(-\frac{1}{3} \cdot {im}^{3}\right) - \mathsf{fma}\left(\frac{1}{60}, {im}^{5}, 2 \cdot im\right)\right)}\]
  4. Final simplification0.8

    \[\leadsto \left(0.5 \cdot \cos re\right) \cdot \left(\left(-\frac{1}{3} \cdot {im}^{3}\right) - \mathsf{fma}\left(\frac{1}{60}, {im}^{5}, 2 \cdot im\right)\right)\]
