Solution
\[ = \lim_{x \to a} \frac{- 2 \sin \left( \frac{\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{a}}{2} \right) \sin \left( \frac{\sqrt{x} - \sqrt{a}}{2} \right)}{2\left( \frac{\sqrt{x} - \sqrt{a}}{2} \right) \left( \sqrt{x} + \sqrt{a} \right)}\]
\[ = \lim_{x \to a} \frac{- \sin \left( \frac{\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{a}}{2} \right)}{\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{a}} \times \frac{\sin \left( \frac{\sqrt{x} - \sqrt{a}}{2} \right)}{\left( \frac{\sqrt{x} - \sqrt{a}}{2} \right)}\]
\[ = \frac{- 1 \sin \left( \sqrt{a} \right)}{2\sqrt{a}} \times 1\]
\[ = \frac{- \sin \sqrt{a}}{2\sqrt{a}}\]
