Derivation

  1. Initial program 37.3

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

  2. Applied egg-rr22.3

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

  3. Taylor expanded in x around inf 22.4

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

  4. Simplified0.4

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(\sin \varepsilon, \cos x, \left(\cos \varepsilon + -1\right) \cdot \sin x\right)} \]

  5. Applied egg-rr0.4

    \[\leadsto \mathsf{fma}\left(\sin \varepsilon, \cos x, \color{blue}{\frac{{\sin \varepsilon}^{2}}{-1 - \cos \varepsilon}} \cdot \sin x\right) \]
