COMMENTS
Apart from the first two terms, every term is divisible by 60 and is of the form 450*k^2 +/- 30*k or 450*k^2 +/- 330*k + 60 for some k.
In such a triangle, this even leg is always the longer leg, and the hypotenuse = a(n) + 1. The Pythagorean triples are (A048161(n), a(n), A067756(n)), so, for a(2) = 12, the corresponding Pythagorean triple is (5, 12, 13). - Bernard Schott, Apr 12 2023

FORMULA
a(n) = (A048161(n)^2 - 1)/2 = A067756(n) - 1.
EXAMPLE
4 is a term: in the right triangle (3, 4, 5), 3 and 5 are prime.
5100 is a term: in the right triangle (101, 5100, 5101), 101 and 5101 are prime.
