Derivation

1. Split input into 2 regimes

2. if (/ (+ (* a c) (* b d)) (+ (* c c) (* d d))) < 2.879191568198394e+300

   1. Initial program 14.2

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

   3. Applied add-sqr-sqrt 14.2

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

   4. Applied *-un-lft-identity 14.2

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{1 \cdot \left(a \cdot c + b \cdot d\right)}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \cdot \sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\]

   5. Applied times-frac 14.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}} \cdot \frac{a \cdot c + b \cdot d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]

   if 2.879191568198394e+300 < (/ (+ (* a c) (* b d)) (+ (* c c) (* d d)))

   1. Initial program 63.4

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

   3. Applied add-sqr-sqrt 63.4

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

   4. Applied *-un-lft-identity 63.4

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{1 \cdot \left(a \cdot c + b \cdot d\right)}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \cdot \sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\]

   5. Applied times-frac 63.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}} \cdot \frac{a \cdot c + b \cdot d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]

   6. Taylor expanded around inf 60.2

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

4. Final simplification 25.6

   \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;\frac{a \cdot c + b \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \le 2.8791915681983938 \cdot 10^{300}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{1}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}} \cdot \frac{a \cdot c + b \cdot d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{1}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}} \cdot a\\ \end{array}\]
