Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if d < 1.73315161808988254e56

    1. Initial program Error: 23.3 bits

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

    3. Applied add-sqr-sqrtError: 23.3 bits

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

    4. Applied associate-/r*Error: 23.2 bits

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

    if 1.73315161808988254e56 < d

    1. Initial program Error: 36.0 bits

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

    3. Applied add-sqr-sqrtError: 36.0 bits

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

    4. Applied associate-/r*Error: 36.0 bits

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

    5. Taylor expanded around 0 Error: 36.5 bits

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

  4. Final simplificationError: 26.1 bits
