Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes
  2. if x < -1.83067458521514195e153

    1. Initial program 63.8

      \[\sqrt{\frac{\left(x \cdot x + y \cdot y\right) + z \cdot z}{3}}\]
    2. Using strategy rm
    3. Applied sqrt-div63.8

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\sqrt{\left(x \cdot x + y \cdot y\right) + z \cdot z}}{\sqrt{3}}}\]
    4. Taylor expanded around -inf 15.7

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{-1 \cdot x}}{\sqrt{3}}\]
    5. Simplified15.7

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{-x}}{\sqrt{3}}\]

    if -1.83067458521514195e153 < x < 4.76635825779849051e56

    1. Initial program 28.3

      \[\sqrt{\frac{\left(x \cdot x + y \cdot y\right) + z \cdot z}{3}}\]
