Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes
  2. if (/ (- (* b c) (* a d)) (+ (* c c) (* d d))) < -inf.0

    1. Initial program 64.0

      \[\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}\]
    2. Using strategy rm
    3. Applied add-sqr-sqrt64.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{\color{blue}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \cdot \sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]
    4. Applied associate-/r*64.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]
    5. Taylor expanded around -inf 51.2

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

    if -inf.0 < (/ (- (* b c) (* a d)) (+ (* c c) (* d d))) < 5.3909740165376935e275

    1. Initial program 12.0

      \[\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}\]
    2. Using strategy rm
    3. Applied add-sqr-sqrt12.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{\color{blue}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \cdot \sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]
    4. Applied associate-/r*11.9

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]
    5. Using strategy rm
    6. Applied div-inv12.0

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

    if 5.3909740165376935e275 < (/ (- (* b c) (* a d)) (+ (* c c) (* d d)))

    1. Initial program 61.9

      \[\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}\]
    2. Using strategy rm
    3. Applied add-sqr-sqrt61.9

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

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}\]
    5. Taylor expanded around inf 59.8

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{b}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\]
  3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.
  4. Final simplification24.8

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} = -inf.0:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{-1 \cdot b}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\\ \mathbf{elif}\;\frac{b \cdot c - a \cdot d}{c \cdot c + d \cdot d} \le 5.3909740165376935 \cdot 10^{275}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\left(b \cdot c - a \cdot d\right) \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{b}{\sqrt{c \cdot c + d \cdot d}}\\ \end{array}\]
