Answer:
9,10
Step-by-step explanation:
let x and x+1 be the 2 consecutive no.s
given that, x(x+1) = x²+9
=> x²+x = x²+9
=> x = 9
so, the 2 no.s are 9,9+1
ie, 9 and 10
Verification
product of 9 and 10 = 9*10 = 90 ----------- (1)
square of the smaller no. = 9*9 = 81
=> product = sqr(smaller number) + 9
hence verified
