u^{2}+2gs=v^{2}
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2gs=v^{2}-u^{2}
Subtract u^{2} from both sides.
2sg=v^{2}-u^{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2sg}{2s}=\frac{\left(v-u\right)\left(u+v\right)}{2s}
Divide both sides by 2s.
g=\frac{\left(v-u\right)\left(u+v\right)}{2s}
Dividing by 2s undoes the multiplication by 2s.
u^{2}+2gs=v^{2}
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2gs=v^{2}-u^{2}
Subtract u^{2} from both sides.
\frac{2gs}{2g}=\frac{\left(v-u\right)\left(u+v\right)}{2g}
Divide both sides by 2g.
s=\frac{\left(v-u\right)\left(u+v\right)}{2g}
Dividing by 2g undoes the multiplication by 2g.
