Answer:
let first no.be x and 2nd no. be (x+2)
so, x^2 +(x+2)^2=290
x^2+x^2+4+4x=290
2x^2+4x=286
x^2+2x=143
x^2+2x -143=0
x^2+13x-11x -143=0
x(x+13) -11 (x+13)=0
so, x+13=0. or x-11=0. ,x=11
x= -13 (but we want only positive integer )
so, x=11
and 2nd number =13
verification=11^2+13^2=290
121+169=290
