Derivation

  1. Initial program 52.6

    \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied flip-+52.6

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{\left(-b\right) \cdot \left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c} \cdot \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}}{2 \cdot a}\]

  4. Simplified0.4

    \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\color{blue}{0 + 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}{2 \cdot a}\]
  5. Using strategy rm

  6. Applied clear-num0.5

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{\frac{2 \cdot a}{\frac{0 + 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}{\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}}}}\]

  7. Simplified0.5

    \[\leadsto \frac{1}{\color{blue}{\frac{2 \cdot a}{4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)} \cdot \left(\left(-b\right) - \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}\right)}}\]
