%N Numbers that are the hypotenuses of more than one Pythagorean triangle.

%C Also, hypotenuses of Pythagorean triangles in Pythagorean triples (a, b, c, a < b < c) such that a and b are the hypotenuses of Pythagorean triangles, where the Pythagorean triples (x1, y1, a) and (x2, y2, b) are similar triangles. Sequence gives c values. - _Naohiro Nomoto_

%C Any multiple of a term of this sequence is also a term. The primitive elements are the products of two primes, not necessarily distinct, that are == 1 (mod 4): A121387. - _Franklin T. Adams-Watters_, Dec 21 2015

%C Numbers appearing more than once in A009000. - _Sean A. Irvine_, Apr 20 2018

%F Of the form b(i)*b(j)*k, where b(n) is A004431(n). Numbers whose prime factorization includes at least 2 (not necessarily distinct) primes congruent to 1 mod 4. - _Franklin T. Adams-Watters_, May 03 2006. [Typo corrected by _Ant King_, Jul 17 2008]

%e 25^2 = 24^2 + 7^2 = 20^2 + 15^2.

%e E.g., (a = 15, b = 20, c = 25, a^2 + b^2=c^2); 15 and 20 are the hypotenuses of Pythagorean triangles. The Pythagorean triples (9, 12, 15) and (12, 16, 20) are similar triangles. So c = 25 is in the sequence. - _Naohiro Nomoto_
