Its ur answer Bro.
Let one number be x
Then other number = x+1
It i s given that the sum of square of those numbers is 145.
Therefore,
x² + (x+1)² = 145.
x² + x² + 2x + 1 = 145 {(a+b)²= a² + 2ab + b²}
2x² + 2x - 144 = 0
Dividing both sides by 2, we obtain
x² + x - 72 = 0
x² - 8x + 9x - 72 = 0
x(x-8) + 9 (x-8) = 0
(x+9) (x-8) = 0
x = -9 or x=8
As x = -9 can't be answer because it is not a natural number.
Hence, x = 8.
And, x+1 = 9.
Justification:-
8² + 9²
= 64 + 81 = 145
Hence, it is proved.

Step-by-step explanation:
let,
first number = x
second number= x+1
given that,
sum of whose squares=145
+=145
+++2(x)(1)=145
2+1+2x=145
2+2x=145-1
2+2x=144
2+2x-144=0
here, 2 is common then,
+x-72=0
splitting the middle term,
-8x+9x-72=0
x(x-8)+9(x-8)=0
(x-8)(x+9)=0
(x-8)=0 or (x+9)=0
x=8 or x= -9
verification:
+=145
64+81=145
145=145
hence proved.
