Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes

  2. if (/ (- 1.0 (cos x)) (sin x)) < -0.01466625826063921

    1. Initial program 0.9

      \[\frac{1 - \cos x}{\sin x}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied add-log-exp1.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\log \left(e^{\frac{1 - \cos x}{\sin x}}\right)}\]

    if -0.01466625826063921 < (/ (- 1.0 (cos x)) (sin x)) < 4.079479593066146e-07

    1. Initial program 59.8

      \[\frac{1 - \cos x}{\sin x}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{24} \cdot {x}^{3} + \left(\frac{1}{240} \cdot {x}^{5} + \frac{1}{2} \cdot x\right)}\]

    if 4.079479593066146e-07 < (/ (- 1.0 (cos x)) (sin x))

    1. Initial program 1.2

      \[\frac{1 - \cos x}{\sin x}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied flip3--1.3

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{{1}^{3} - {\left(\cos x\right)}^{3}}{1 \cdot 1 + \left(\cos x \cdot \cos x + 1 \cdot \cos x\right)}}}{\sin x}\]

    4. Applied associate-/l/1.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{{1}^{3} - {\left(\cos x\right)}^{3}}{\sin x \cdot \left(1 \cdot 1 + \left(\cos x \cdot \cos x + 1 \cdot \cos x\right)\right)}}\]

    5. Simplified1.3

      \[\leadsto \frac{{1}^{3} - {\left(\cos x\right)}^{3}}{\color{blue}{\left(\cos x \cdot \left(\cos x + 1\right) + 1 \cdot 1\right) \cdot \sin x}}\]
  3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.
