((3(√2))/s)=((3(√5))/(10))⇒s=((10(√(10)))/5)=2(√(10))⇒s^2 =40

$$\frac{\mathrm{3}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}{{s}}=\frac{\mathrm{3}\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{10}}\Rightarrow{s}=\frac{\mathrm{10}\sqrt{\mathrm{10}}}{\mathrm{5}}=\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{10}}\Rightarrow{s}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{40} \\ $$

Construct say BD=BE=3⇒DE=3(√2), and construct DF=FG=EG=3(√2) ⇒BF=3(√5);BH=r=10 Homothety that maps FG to HI gives the desired square and maps the constructed square above to another square with the desired coincident properties. This homothety has ratio ((BF)/(BH))=((3(√5))/r)=((3(√5))/(10)) which is also equal to ((FG)/(HI))=((3(√2))/s) ⇒((3(√5))/(10))=((3(√2))/s)⇒s=((10(√(10)))/5)=2(√(10))

One can also decide to use any variable x. Construct say BD=BE=x⇒DE=x(√2) and construct say DF=FG=EG=x(√2) ⇒BF=x(√5);BH=r=10 ((BF)/(BH))=((x(√5))/(10))=((FG)/(HI))=((x(√2))/s)⇒((x(√5))/(10))=((x(√2))/s)⇒s=2(√(10))

$${One}\:{can}\:{also}\:{decide}\:{to}\:{use}\:{any}\:{variable}\:{x}. \\ $$$${Construct}\:{say}\:{BD}={BE}={x}\Rightarrow{DE}={x}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${and}\:{construct}\:{say}\:{DF}={FG}={EG}={x}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{BF}={x}\sqrt{\mathrm{5}};{BH}={r}=\mathrm{10} \\ $$$$\frac{{BF}}{{BH}}=\frac{{x}\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{10}}=\frac{{FG}}{{HI}}=\frac{{x}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}{{s}}\Rightarrow\frac{{x}\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{10}}=\frac{{x}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}{{s}}\Rightarrow{s}=\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{10}} \\ $$
