Answer:
9 and 6 or -5 and √-20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be x and y.
x² - y² = 45 ...(i)
y² = 4x ... (ii)
Using (ii) in (i)
x² - 4x = 45
x² - 4x - 45 = 0 ...(iii)
Factors of 45 are 1 , 45 ; 3 , 15 ; 5 , 9
5 - 9 = -4
(iii) can be written as
x² + 5x - 9x - 45 = 0
x ( x + 5) - 9(x + 5) = 0
(x - 9) (x + 5) = 0
x - 9 = 0 or x + 5 = 0
x = 9 or x = -5
Using these values in (ii)
y² = 4 * 9 or 4 * -5
y² = 36 or -20
y = 6 or √-20
So the number are either 9 and 6 or -5 and √-20
