Answer:

The aprox, numbers:

4.1633   and    8.3266

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 2b

a² - b² = 52

then:

(2b)² - b² = 52

4b² - b² = 52

3b² = 52

b² = 52/3

b² = 17.333

√b² = √17.333

b = 4.1633        aprox.

a = 2b

a = 2*4.1633

a = 8.3266

Check:

8.3266² - 4.1633² = 52

69.333 - 17.333 = 52
