Fungrim entry: 1d730a

\operatorname{atan2}\!\left({y}_{1}, {x}_{1}\right) - \operatorname{atan2}\!\left({y}_{2}, {x}_{2}\right) = \operatorname{atan2}\!\left({y}_{1} {x}_{2} - {y}_{2} {x}_{1}, {x}_{1} {x}_{2} + {y}_{1} {y}_{2}\right)

Assumptions:

{x}_{1} \in \mathbb{R} \,\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\, {x}_{2} \in \mathbb{R} \,\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\, {y}_{1} \in \mathbb{R} \,\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\, {y}_{2} \in \mathbb{R} \,\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\, \operatorname{atan2}\!\left({y}_{1}, {x}_{1}\right) - \operatorname{atan2}\!\left({y}_{2}, {x}_{2}\right) \in \left(-\pi, \pi\right] \,\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\, \operatorname{not} \left({x}_{1} = {y}_{1} = 0\right) \,\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\, \operatorname{not} \left({x}_{2} = {y}_{2} = 0\right)

TeX:
