%N The total number of distinct Pythagorean triples with an area numerically equal to n times their perimeters

%C The members of this sequence are also 1/2 the number of divisors of 8n^2. The corresponding results for primitive triangles only are in A068068.

%C Also, the total number of distinct "areas with equal border", that is: Let x, y be positive integers so that the area xy equals the border around it with thickness n. As a formula it is: 2xy = (x+2n)(y+2n). To compare with the original, the areas at thickness 5 are 11x210, 12x110, 14x60, 15x50, 18x35, 20x30. - Juhani Heino, Jul 22 2012

%F a(n) = A000005(8n^2)/2 = A078644(2n).

%e There are 6 Pythagorean triples whose area is 5 times their perimeters - (21,220,221), (22,120,122), (24,70,74), (25,60,65),(28,45,53) and (30,40,50) - hence a(5)=6.
