Formula

Arrange all primitive Pythagorean triples a, b, c by value of hypotenuse c, then by long leg b; for n-th value of c, sequence gives radius of largest inscribed circle, (a+b-c)/2.

a(n) = (A046086(n) + A046087(n) - A020882(n))/2 = A087459(n)/2.

a(n) = sqrt(A118961(n)*A118962(n)/2). - Lekraj Beedassy, May 07 2006
