COMMENTS

Primitive reciprocal Pythagorean triangles 1/a^2=1/b^2+1/c^2 have a=fg, b=ef, c=eg where e^2=f^2+g^2; i.e. e,f,g represent the sides of primitive Pythagorean triangles. But the product of the two legs of primitive Pythagorean triangles are multiples of 12 and so the reciprocal of hypotenuses of reciprocal Pythagorean triangles are always multiples of 12 (A008594).

EXAMPLE

a(1)=1 since 1/(12*1)^2=1/12^2 =1/15^2+1/20^2; a(70)=6 since 1/(12*70)^2=1/840^2 =1/875^2+1/3000^2 =1/888^2+1/2590^2 =1/910^2+1/2184^2 =1/952^2+1/1785^2 =1/1050^2+1/1400^2 =1/1160^2+1/1218^2. Looking at A020885, 1 is divisible by 1, while 70 is divisible by 1, 5, 10, 14, 35 and again 35.
