With maxima 5.23.2: (%i1) radcan((2*x^2/(x^2+1)-1)/sqrt(-4*x^2/(x^2+1)^2+1) ); (%o1) 1 radcan(((2*x^2-x^2-1)/(x^2+1))/sqrt((x^2-1)^2/(x^2+1)^2));
2 x - 1 (%o2) -------- ! 2 ! ! x - 1! radcan(((x^2-1)*x/(x^2+1)^2-x/(x^2+1))/sqrt(-(x^2-1)^2/(x^2 + 1)^2 + 1) ); x (%o3) - --------------- 2 (x + 1) abs(x) same results Thus, where reporting this bug?
