Question
Sum of the areas of two squares is 468 m2. If the difference of their perimeters is 24 m, find the sides of the two squares.

Let the side of the first square be 'a' m and that of the second be ′A′ m.
Area of the first square = a2 sq m.
Area of the second square = A2 sq m.
Their perimeters would be 4a and 4A respectively.
