%N Floor of area of triangle with consecutive prime sides.

%F Given a triangle ABC with sides a, b, base c, height h and x=base of right triangle formed by a and h. Then a^2 = h^2+x^2, b^2 = h^2+(c-x)^2, h = sqrt(a^2 - x^2), area = 1/2hc. Hence x = ( a^2-b^2 + c^2)/2c and so area = 1/4*sqrt(4*a^2*c^2-(a^2-b^2+c^2)^2).

%e For triangle with sides 3,5,7 area = (1/4)*sqrt(4*9*49 - (9-25+49)^2) = 6.495...

%o (PARI) area(n) = { for(x=1,n, a=prime(x);b=prime(x+1);c=prime(x+2); z=1/4*sqrt(4*a^2*c^2-(c^2+a^2-b^2)^2); print1(floor(z)",") ) }
