Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (/ (+ (* a c) (* b d)) (+ (* c c) (* d d))) < 1.91629682160154213e294

    1. Initial program 13.9

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

    3. Applied add-sqr-sqrt13.9

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

    4. Applied associate-/r*13.8

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

    if 1.91629682160154213e294 < (/ (+ (* a c) (* b d)) (+ (* c c) (* d d)))

    1. Initial program 63.2

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

    3. Applied add-sqr-sqrt63.2

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

    4. Applied associate-/r*63.2

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

    5. Taylor expanded around -inf 59.1

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

  4. Final simplification24.9

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;\frac{a \cdot c + b \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \le 1.91629682160154213 \cdot 10^{294}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\frac{a \cdot c + b \cdot d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{-1 \cdot a}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\\ \end{array}\]
