\[2 \cdot \left(\cos \left(x + \frac{\varepsilon}{2}\right) \cdot \sin \left(\frac{\varepsilon}{2}\right)\right) \]

Derivation

  1. Initial program 37.1

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

  2. Applied egg-rr22.1

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

  3. Taylor expanded in eps around inf 22.1

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

  4. Simplified0.4

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

  5. Final simplification0.4

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