Answer:
Let the side of the first square be 'a'm and that of the second be 'A' m.
Area of the first square =a^2 sq m.
Area of the second square =A^2 sq m.
Their perimeters would be 4a and 4A respectively.
Given 4A−4a=24
A−a=6 --(1)
A^2+ a^2=468 --(2)
From (1), A=a+6
Substituting for A in (2), we get
(a+6)^2 +a^2=468
a^2+12a+36+a^2=468
2a^2+12a+36=468
a^2+6a+18=234
a^2+6a−216=0
a^2+18a−12a−216=0
a(a+18)−12(a+18)=0
(a−12)(a+18)=0
a=12,−18
So, the side of the first square is 12 m. and the side of the second square is 18 m.
