Homework Statement
\frac{1 + \sqrt{\frac{1}{1 + \left(\frac{s}{u}\right)^{2}}}}{1 - \sqrt{\frac{1}{1 + \left(\frac{s}{u}\right)^{2}}}}
Should equal \left(\sqrt{1 + \left(\frac{u}{s}\right)^2} + \left(\frac{u}{s}\right)\right)^{2}

The Attempt at a Solution
I have tried numerous ways of trying to simplify the initial equation to equal the second, but cannot seem to get rid of the multi-term denominator.
What is a good formula/method for reducing a fraction such as this?
Thanks
