Algebraic conversion of LHS to RHS equation

Homework Statement

I'm having trouble converting the LHS to the RHS of this equation:

The Attempt at a Solution

I've tried a bunch of different things. One thing I tried was bringing the h in the denominator to the denominators of the numerators (i.e. making it a factor of the numerators' denominators). With common denominators and factoring out h I end up getting:

...And I'm stuck there. I would appreciate if someone could just show me step-by-step the solution (working the LHS to meet the RHS please).

(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2 and a = \sqrt{a} \sqrt{a}.

I got it, thanks all.
