It depends on how much of BASIC you want to use.
If all you want is the math functions, and you use the two floating point accumulator areas 411Dh and 4127h properly (so no error that would trigger BASIC's error handling), then only one small area needs to be set up. And even that is only for floating point division or exponential. You just need to copy 14 bytes from ROM starting at 18F7h to RAM starting at 4080h:
LD HL,18F7H
LD DE,4080H
LD BC,000EH
LDIR
But if you want to use more, like BASIC's convenient floating point ASCII conversion routines, or many printing routines, then you'll probably have to plug the Disk BASIC RAM "exits" from 41A6h to 41E2h with C9 "ret" instructions the way Level 2 does. And if you want a functional disk, you have to be very careful with RST 28h, which is shared with both DOS function calls and Break key handling.
I recommend reading The Alternate Source's "ROM Routines Documented" book, which explains how to use much of the ROM properly. Plugging Disk exits is covered on page 4, and the whole Chapter 2 is on using the math routines, with my example LDIR above coming from page 30. It even explains string functions that other books skip. You can find it on archive.org at
