We can write a*a=a^2, b*b=d^2Need to find (a^2+b^2)a + b = a/b + b/aThan, a + b = (a^2+b^2)/abThan, (a + b)/ab = a^2+b^2As per question a^2 + b^2 = (a + b)/abAns is (a + b)/ab

a

a + b = a/b + b/a
a2b + ab2 = a2 + b2
a2b – a2 + ab2 – b2 = 0
(b-1)a2 + b2a – b2 = 0
 
Determinant [D] = (b2)2 – 4.(b-1).(-b2) has to be greater than equal to ‘0’. 
Thus (b2).[b2+ 4b – 4] >= 0
OR  b2+ 4b – 4 >= 0
OR  (b+2)2 – 8 >= 0
OR  (b + 2)2 >= 8
For b to be an +ve integer, the first considerable value of (b + 2)2 should be 9
Thus b + 2 = 3
OR b = 1.
 
Putting value of b = 1, in the original equation we get
(1-1)a2 + 12.a – (1)2 = 0
OR  a = 1;
 
Thus a2 + b2 = (1)2 + (1)2 = 1 + 1 = 2.
