Question 65001: Dear tutor

I have this problem about simplfying this equation:
__1____ _ ___1___
(x-h)^2 h^2

I also have this problem where I rationalized the numerator
___√(x-4)+2_____
x
By the way the the underline means this is a fraction like 1/4.
√ represents a square root covering (x-4).
Sorry if it looks complicated in a weird way.

I have this problem about simplfying this equation:
__1____ _ ___1___
(x-h)^2 h^2
-------------------
The least common denominator is h^2[(x-h)^2]
Rewrite each fraction with the lcd as its denominator:
=[h^2/lcd - (x-h)^2/lcd]
Combine the numerators and put that over the lcd:
=[h^2-(x^2-2hx+h^2]/lcd
=[-x^2+2hx]/[h^2(x-h)^2]
