Answer:
a) As sides of squares are always equal.
So,
BC=CD
2b+CF=a+b
CF= a+b-2b
CF= a-b
b) Area of rectangle CDEF= CDxCF
=(a+b)(a-b)
=(a²-b²)
Hope it helps :-)

Define x :
-----------------------------------------
Let the smallest number be x.
The other two numbers will be x + 1 and x + 2.
-----------------------------------------
Construct Equation :
-----------------------------------------
Sum of these numbers is 72
⇒ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
-----------------------------------------
Solve for x :
-----------------------------------------
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 72
3x + 3 = 72
3x = 69
x = 23
-----------------------------------------
Find the numbers :
-----------------------------------------
1st number = x = 23
2nd number = x + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24
3rd number = x + 2 = 23 + 2 = 25
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer : The numbers are 23, 24 and 25.
