Derivation

1. Split input into 3 regimes

2. if x < -1.00000000000000004e154

   1. Initial program 63.9

      \[\sqrt{x \cdot x + y} \]

   2. Taylor expanded in x around -inf 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-1 \cdot x} \]

   3. Simplified 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-x} \]
      Proof

      [Start] 0.0	\[ -1 \cdot x \]
      mul-1-neg [=>] 0.0	\[ \color{blue}{-x} \]

   if -1.00000000000000004e154 < x < 1.4500000000000001e106

   1. Initial program 0.0

      \[\sqrt{x \cdot x + y} \]

   2. Simplified 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{\mathsf{fma}\left(x, x, y\right)}} \]
      Proof

      [Start] 0.0	\[ \sqrt{x \cdot x + y} \]
      fma-def [=>] 0.0	\[ \sqrt{\color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(x, x, y\right)}} \]

   if 1.4500000000000001e106 < x

   1. Initial program 49.7

      \[\sqrt{x \cdot x + y} \]

   2. Taylor expanded in x around inf 0.7

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{x} \]
3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.

4. Final simplification 0.2

   \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \leq -1 \cdot 10^{+154}:\\ \;\;\;\;-x\\ \mathbf{elif}\;x \leq 1.45 \cdot 10^{+106}:\\ \;\;\;\;\sqrt{\mathsf{fma}\left(x, x, y\right)}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;x\\ \end{array} \]
