Derivation

1. Split input into 2 regimes

2. if x < -4.999999999999985e-310

   1. Initial program 30.6

      \[\sqrt{2 \cdot \left(x \cdot x\right)} \]

   2. Taylor expanded in x around -inf 0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-1 \cdot \left(\sqrt{2} \cdot x\right)} \]

   3. Simplified 0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{2} \cdot \left(-x\right)} \]
      Proof

      [Start] 0.4	\[ -1 \cdot \left(\sqrt{2} \cdot x\right) \]
      rational.json-simplify-24 [=>] 0.4	\[ \color{blue}{\sqrt{2} \cdot \left(-1 \cdot x\right)} \]
      rational.json-simplify-50 [<=] 0.4	\[ \sqrt{2} \cdot \color{blue}{\left(x \cdot -1\right)} \]
      rational.json-simplify-31 [<=] 0.4	\[ \sqrt{2} \cdot \color{blue}{\left(-x\right)} \]

   4. Applied egg-rr 0.5

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\frac{-1}{x}}} \]

   5. Applied egg-rr 0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\sqrt{2} \cdot \left(x \cdot -0.5\right)\right) \cdot 2} \]

   if -4.999999999999985e-310 < x

   1. Initial program 30.9

      \[\sqrt{2 \cdot \left(x \cdot x\right)} \]

   2. Taylor expanded in x around 0 0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{2} \cdot x} \]

   3. Applied egg-rr 0.5

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\frac{1}{x}}} \]
3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

4. Final simplification 0.4

   \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \leq -5 \cdot 10^{-310}:\\ \;\;\;\;\left(\sqrt{2} \cdot \left(x \cdot -0.5\right)\right) \cdot 2\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\frac{1}{x}}\\ \end{array} \]
