The semiperimeters of cyclic quadrilaterals with four consecutive odd prime sides are given in A131019. This arises in the cyclic quadrilateral analog of A106171.

FORMULA
|
a(n) = prime(k) for some k such that, where S = semiperimeter = (prime(k) + prime(k+1) + prime(k+2) + prime(k+3))/2 is an element of A131019 and rounded area = round(sqrt((S-prime(k)*S-prime(k+1)*S-prime(k+2)*S-prime(k+3)) is prime.
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(5) = 61 because (61 + 67 + 71 + 73)/2 = 136 and sqrt((136 - 61)*(136 - 67)*(136 - 71)*(136 - 73)) = 4603.43622 and round(4603.43622) = 4603 is prime.
