ANSWER:-
Let the two consecutive positive integers be ,
x,(x+2)
According to the Question, sum of square is 100,
so,
x²+(x+2)²=100
=> x²+x²+4+4x=100
=> 2x²+4x+4=100
=>x²+2x+2=50
=> x²+2x-48=0
=> x²+8x-6x-48=0
=> x(x+8)-6(x+8)=0
=> (x-6)(x+8)=0
=> x=6 and x= -8 but due to positive we will take 8.
=>If x=6,
then it will be 6 and 8 and if 8 it will be 8 and 10.
but we cant take 8 and 10 as it will not satisfy so,we take 6 and 8 respectively.
These are two consecutive integers whose sum of square equals 100.
