The real part of these numbers is always irrational.
FORMULA
Consider prime isosceles triangles of sides (2, 3, 3), (3, 5, 5), ..., (x, y, y) where x is prime and y is the next prime after x. Then area = 1/2*x*sqrt(y^2-(x/2)^2). Output floor(area)
PROG
(PARI) f(n) = forprime(x=2, n, y=nextprime(x+1); a=1/2*x*sqrt(y^2-(x/2)^2); print1(floor (a)", "))
