Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if x < -0.030804876869537152 or 0.033666324808911199 < x

    1. Initial program 1.0

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

    3. Applied *-un-lft-identity1.0

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

    4. Applied times-frac0.5

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{x} \cdot \frac{1 - \cos x}{x}}\]
    5. Using strategy rm

    6. Applied flip3--0.5

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

    7. Applied associate-/l/0.6

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

    8. Simplified0.6

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

    if -0.030804876869537152 < x < 0.033666324808911199

    1. Initial program 62.3

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

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\frac{1}{720} \cdot {x}^{4} + \frac{1}{2}\right) - \frac{1}{24} \cdot {x}^{2}}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification0.3

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \le -0.030804876869537152 \lor \neg \left(x \le 0.033666324808911199\right):\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{1}{x} \cdot \frac{{1}^{3} - {\left(\cos x\right)}^{3}}{\left(\cos x \cdot \left(\cos x + 1\right) + 1 \cdot 1\right) \cdot x}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\left(\frac{1}{720} \cdot {x}^{4} + \frac{1}{2}\right) - \frac{1}{24} \cdot {x}^{2}\\ \end{array}\]
