the difference of the areas of two squares drawn on two line segments of different lengths is 32 sq . cm . find the length of the greater line segment if one is longer than the other by 2 cm .
"solution let the lengths of the line segments be x cm and ( x + 2 ) cm . then ( x + 2 ) 2 - x 2 = 32 < = > x 2 + 4 x + 4 - x 2 = 32 < = > 4 x = 28 therefore x = 7 . length of longer line segment = ( 7 + 2 ) cm = 9 cm . answer c"
divide(subtract(32, multiply(2, 2)), const_4)
