I'm doing a calculation that results in terms of the form 1/ Sqrt[ -h + Sqrt[h^2 + r^2]] * 1/Sqrt[h + Sqrt[h^2 + r^2]] * (other functions) One sees that this simplifies to (other functions)/r. It would helpful to make Mathematica perform this simplification, but I have not been able to get Simplify[] or FullSimplify[] or anything else to do it. How would I be able to do this? Thanks, Tom
