x=A020882(n); y=2*A046086(n); z=2*A046087(n); d=A120682(n). y is twice the height of the other triangle with z as base and conversely.
Take the n-th primitive Pythagorean triple (x, y, z) ordered by increasing z, then y. (1/x)^2 + (1/y)^2 = (z/w)^2, where a(n) = w. - Ivan N. Ianakiev, Jan 12 2020
FORMULA
a(n) = y*z/4 = A046086(n)*A046087(n) = 2*A120734(n).
EXAMPLE
168 in the sequence refers to the area common to both triangle (25,25,14) and triangle (25,25,48).
