	${(m_{r} + g)}^{2} + {(\frac{1}{m_{r}} + f)}^{2} = g^{2} + f^{2} - c$ $m_{r}^{2} {(m_{r} + g)}^{2} - m_{r}^{2} (g^{2} + f^{2} - c)$ $+ {({f m}_{r} + 1)}^{2} = 0$ $\Rightarrow m_{r} a r e r o o t s o f a b o v e e q u a t i o n$ $w h o s e c o n s t a n t t e r m i s 1 a n d$ $c o e f f i c i n t o f m_{r}^{4} i s a l s o 1 .$ $s o m_{1} . m_{2} . m_{3} . m_{4} = 1$

	$Let f (x) = x^{4} + 2 {g x}^{3} + {c x}^{2} + 2 f x + 1$ $= x^{2} (x^{2} + \frac{1}{x^{2}} + 2 g x + \frac{2 f}{x} + c)$ $f (x) has roots m_{1}, m_{2}, m_{3}, m_{4} so$ $m_{1} m_{2} m_{3} m_{4} = 1 by Vieta .$
