Answer -
Total = 29
Let first part = x
Then second part = 29 – x
According to the condition
x² + (29 – x)2 = 425
=> x² + 841 + x² – 58x = 425
=> 2x² – 58x + 841 – 425 = 0
=> 2x² – 58x + 416 = 0
=> x² – 29x + 208 = 0 (Dividing by 2)
=> x² – 13x – 16x + 208 = 0
=> x(x – 13) – 16 (x – 13) = 0
=> (x – 13) (x – 16) = 0
Either x – 13 = 0, then x = 13 or x – 16 = 0, then x = 16
(i) If x = 13, then First part =13 and second part = 29 – 13 = 16
(ii) If x = 16, then First part =16 and second part = 29 – 16 = 13
Parts are 13, 16
