\[\log \left(x + \sqrt{x - 1} \cdot \sqrt{x + 1}\right) \]

Derivation

1. Initial program 44.5%

   \[\log \left(x + \sqrt{x \cdot x - 1}\right) \]

2. Taylor expanded in x around inf 98.9%

   \[\leadsto \log \left(x + \color{blue}{\left(x - 0.5 \cdot \frac{1}{x}\right)}\right) \]

3. Simplified 98.9%

   \[\leadsto \log \left(x + \color{blue}{\left(x - \frac{0.5}{x}\right)}\right) \]
   Proof

   [Start] 98.9	\[ \log \left(x + \left(x - 0.5 \cdot \frac{1}{x}\right)\right) \]
   associate-*r/ [=>] 98.9	\[ \log \left(x + \left(x - \color{blue}{\frac{0.5 \cdot 1}{x}}\right)\right) \]
   metadata-eval [=>] 98.9	\[ \log \left(x + \left(x - \frac{\color{blue}{0.5}}{x}\right)\right) \]

4. Final simplification 98.9%

   \[\leadsto \log \left(x + \left(x - \frac{0.5}{x}\right)\right) \]
