Triangle read by rows: row n (n>=2) gives a set of n primes with the property that the pairwise averages are all primes, having the smallest largest element.

COMMENTS
If there is more than one set with the same smallest last element, choose the lexicographically earliest solution.
For distinct primes, the solution for n=5 is {5, 29, 53, 89, 173}.

EXAMPLE
Triangle begins:
3, 7
3, 7, 19
3, 11, 23, 71
5, 29, 53, 89, 113
3, 11, 83, 131, 251, 383
5, 29, 113, 269, 353, 449, 509
The set of primes generated by {5, 29, 53, 89, 113} is {17, 29, 41, 47, 59, 59, 71, 71, 83, 101}.
