COMMENTS
Note that in the sequences of generalized k-gonal numbers always a(3) = k. In this case k = 30.
Generalized k-gonal numbers are second k-gonal numbers and positive terms of k-gonal numbers interleaved, with k >= 5.
A general formula for the generalized k-gonal numbers is given by m*((k-2)*m-k+4)/2, with m = 0, +1, -1, +2, -2, +3, -3, ..., k >= 5.
Every sequence of generalized k-gonal numbers can be represented as vertices of a rectangular spiral constructed with line segments on the square grid, with k >= 5.
56*a(n) + 169 is a square. - Vincenzo Librandi, Jul 12 2018
Generalized k-gonal numbers are the partial sums of the sequence formed by the multiples of (k - 4) and the odd numbers (A005408) interleaved, with k >= 5. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 27 2018
Also partial sums of A317326. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 28 2018

FORMULA
G.f.: x*(1 + 26*x + x^2)/((1 + x)^2*(1 - x)^3). - Vincenzo Librandi, Jul 12 2018
From Amiram Eldar, Mar 01 2022: (Start)
a(n) = (28*n*(n + 1) + 12*(2*n + 1)*(-1)^n - 12)/8.
a(n) = n*(7*n + 13)/2, if n is even, or (n + 1)*(7*n - 6)/2 otherwise.
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 14/169 + Pi*cot(Pi/14)/13. (End)
