SUMIT SINGH  (8 years ago)

The answer is only 1 i,e the number is 56 (or say) 65.
Explanation:
(10x + y) - (10y + x) = k^2 < This is the first condition >
=> 9(x-y) = k^2 ______equation(1)

(10x + y) + (10y +x) = z^2 < This is the second condition>
=>11(x+y) = z^2
Here 11 is nt a perfect square,so (x+y) must be 11 to make LHS a perfect square.
so, the probables of (x+y ) are____ x y
2 9 not possible
3 8 not possible
4 7 not possible
5 6 possible

now from equation 1 also we can say that... 9 is a perfect square ,so (x-y) must have to be 1 or 4..but this doesnt follow the given conditions.

so,the answer is 56 (or) 65.
