$\"a%5E2%2B1%5E2=g%5E2+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"a%5E2=g%5E2-1+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"a=sqrt%28g%5E2-1%29\"$ and $\"a=-sqrt%28g%5E2-1%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "However the assumption is that a is not negative,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28a=sqrt%28g%5E2-1%29%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
