Derivation

  1. Initial program 0.5

    \[\cos^{-1} \left(\frac{1 - 5 \cdot \left(v \cdot v\right)}{v \cdot v - 1}\right)\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied add-log-exp0.5

    \[\leadsto \cos^{-1} \left(\frac{1 - \color{blue}{\log \left(e^{5 \cdot \left(v \cdot v\right)}\right)}}{v \cdot v - 1}\right)\]

  4. Final simplification0.5

    \[\leadsto \cos^{-1} \left(\frac{1 - \log \left(e^{5 \cdot \left(v \cdot v\right)}\right)}{v \cdot v - 1}\right)\]
