Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (/ (- (* b c) (* a d)) (+ (* c c) (* d d))) < 2.0623511637276035e+282

    1. Initial program 14.3

      \[\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied add-sqr-sqrt14.3

      \[\leadsto \frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{\color{blue}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \cdot \sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]

    4. Applied associate-/r*14.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]

    if 2.0623511637276035e+282 < (/ (- (* b c) (* a d)) (+ (* c c) (* d d)))

    1. Initial program 62.5

      \[\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied add-sqr-sqrt62.5

      \[\leadsto \frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{\color{blue}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \cdot \sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]

    4. Applied associate-/r*62.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]

    5. Taylor expanded around 0 60.1

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{-1 \cdot a}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification25.5

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \le 2.062351163727603 \cdot 10^{282}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{-1 \cdot a}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\\ \end{array}\]
