Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if eps < -0.0022179907341561373 or 0.0025683740395745632 < eps

    1. Initial program 29.7

      \[\cos \left(x + \varepsilon\right) - \cos x \]

    2. Applied cos-sum_binary640.8

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

    3. Applied associate--l-_binary640.8

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\cos x \cdot \cos \varepsilon - \left(\sin x \cdot \sin \varepsilon + \cos x\right)} \]

    4. Simplified0.8

      \[\leadsto \cos x \cdot \cos \varepsilon - \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(\sin \varepsilon, \sin x, \cos x\right)} \]

    if -0.0022179907341561373 < eps < 0.0025683740395745632

    1. Initial program 49.1

      \[\cos \left(x + \varepsilon\right) - \cos x \]

    2. Taylor expanded in eps around 0 0.1

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(0.16666666666666666 \cdot \left({\varepsilon}^{3} \cdot \sin x\right) + 0.041666666666666664 \cdot \left({\varepsilon}^{4} \cdot \cos x\right)\right) - \left(0.5 \cdot \left({\varepsilon}^{2} \cdot \cos x\right) + \varepsilon \cdot \sin x\right)} \]

    3. Simplified0.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\cos x \cdot \mathsf{fma}\left(0.041666666666666664, {\varepsilon}^{4}, \left(\varepsilon \cdot \varepsilon\right) \cdot -0.5\right) - \sin x \cdot \left(\varepsilon - 0.16666666666666666 \cdot {\varepsilon}^{3}\right)} \]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification0.5

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;\varepsilon \leq -0.0022179907341561373:\\ \;\;\;\;\cos x \cdot \cos \varepsilon - \mathsf{fma}\left(\sin \varepsilon, \sin x, \cos x\right)\\ \mathbf{elif}\;\varepsilon \leq 0.0025683740395745632:\\ \;\;\;\;\cos x \cdot \mathsf{fma}\left(0.041666666666666664, {\varepsilon}^{4}, \left(\varepsilon \cdot \varepsilon\right) \cdot -0.5\right) - \sin x \cdot \left(\varepsilon - 0.16666666666666666 \cdot {\varepsilon}^{3}\right)\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\cos x \cdot \cos \varepsilon - \mathsf{fma}\left(\sin \varepsilon, \sin x, \cos x\right)\\ \end{array} \]
