\n" ); document.write( "=======================
\n" ); document.write( "5/(x-sqrt(2))
\n" ); document.write( "==================
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply numerator and denominator by x+sqrt(2) to get:
\n" ); document.write( "[5(x+sqrt(2))]/[x^2-2]
\n" ); document.write( "===========================
