I'm sure there's a formula to figure this out, but the easiest way to do this is to look at the squares.
\n" ); document.write( "1^2 = 1
\n" ); document.write( "2^2 = 4
\n" ); document.write( "3^2 = 9
\n" ); document.write( "4^2 = 16
\n" ); document.write( "5^2 = 25
\n" ); document.write( "6^2 = 36
\n" ); document.write( "7^2= 49
\n" ); document.write( "8^2 = 64
\n" ); document.write( "9^2 = 81
\n" ); document.write( "10^2 = 100
\n" ); document.write( "We don't need to go any higher since the sum is 106.
\n" ); document.write( "Use process of elimination. Can't be 10 & 6 (100+36=136). What about 9 and 5, because you know they're 4 apart. 81+25 = 106
\n" ); document.write( "Voila.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
