Derivation

1. Initial program 15.1

   \[\frac{r \cdot \sin b}{\cos \left(a + b\right)}\]
2. Using strategy rm

3. Applied cos-sum 0.3

   \[\leadsto \frac{r \cdot \sin b}{\color{blue}{\cos a \cdot \cos b - \sin a \cdot \sin b}}\]
4. Using strategy rm

5. Applied associate-/l* 0.4

   \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{r}{\frac{\cos a \cdot \cos b - \sin a \cdot \sin b}{\sin b}}}\]
6. Using strategy rm

7. Applied div-sub 0.4

   \[\leadsto \frac{r}{\color{blue}{\frac{\cos a \cdot \cos b}{\sin b} - \frac{\sin a \cdot \sin b}{\sin b}}}\]

8. Simplified 0.4

   \[\leadsto \frac{r}{\frac{\cos a \cdot \cos b}{\sin b} - \color{blue}{\sin a}}\]

9. Final simplification 0.4

   \[\leadsto \frac{r}{\frac{\cos a \cdot \cos b}{\sin b} - \sin a}\]
