Problem

Let $A = \left\{ 2,5,10,17,\cdots,n^2+1,\cdots\right\}$ be the set of all positive squares plus $1$ and $B = \left\{101, 104, 109, 116,\cdots,m^2 + 100,\cdots\right\}$ be the set of all positive squares plus $100$.

(a) What is the smallest number in both $A$ and $B$?

(b) Find all numbers that are in both $A$ and $B$.
