Answer:
4, 6
Step-by-step explanation: Let the two consecutive natural numbers be x and x+2.
x² + (x+2)² = 52.......(given)
x² + x² + 4x + 4 = 52
2x² + 4x = 48
x² + 2x - 24 = 0
(by factorising)
x² + 6x - 4x - 24 = 0
x(x+6) - 4(x+6) = 0
(x+6) (x-4) = 0
x + 6 = 0 or x - 4 = 0
x = -6 or x = 4
Since x is a natural number.
therefore x cannot be equal to -6
therefore x is equal to 4.
Hence the two numbers are 4 and 6.
