It's best not to try assessing significance from R-squared. You should
try to test the extra variables for significance directly. -test- I
imagine to be the way to do it.

Otherwise, the difference in R-squared is just that. Calculate both
and subtract. I don't see what your difficulty is there.  The recipe
is not

correlate and square predicted and actual dependent variable

but

correlate predicted and actual dependent variable, and square
