Answer:
The given numbers are 9 and 11.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two positive integers be α and β.
∵ α² + β² = 202
and α² - β² = 40
Adding both equations
2α² = 242
⇒ α² = 121
⇒ α = 11 (since the integers are positive)
Therefore β = √(202 - 121) = √81 = 9
α = 11, β = 9
(Note: question needs minor correction: if the square of the larger number is 40 more than the square of the smaller number)
