Derivation

  1. Initial program 0.0

    \[\sqrt{1 - x \cdot x}\]

  2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.2

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{1} - \left(\frac{1}{8} \cdot \frac{{x}^{4}}{{\left(\sqrt{1}\right)}^{3}} + \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{{x}^{2}}{\sqrt{1}}\right)}\]

  3. Final simplification0.2

    \[\leadsto \sqrt{1} - \left(\frac{1}{8} \cdot \frac{{x}^{4}}{{\left(\sqrt{1}\right)}^{3}} + \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{{x}^{2}}{\sqrt{1}}\right)\]
