Step-by-step explanation: Let two no/s be x(greater) and y(smaller)
Then acc to ques,
x² - y² = 45 � ...(1)
Also,
y² = 4x ...(2)
From 1 and 2
Substituting 2 in 1
We get,
x² - y² = 45
x² - 4x = 45
⇒ x² - 4x - 45
⇒ x² - 9x + 5x -45
⇒ x(x - 9) + 5(x - 9)
⇒ (x+5)(x-9)
⇒ Then x = -5,9
If x = -5
y² = 4(-5)
y² = -20
y = √-20 which is not applicable here
Negative neglected
If x = 9
y² = 4(9)
y² = 36
y = √36
y = 6
