A231100 Even legs of primitive Pythagorean triples (with multiplicity) sorted with respect to increasing hypotenuse. 5

%I #21 Nov 14 2019 21:22:24

%S 4,12,8,24,20,12,40,28,60,16,56,48,36,84,80,72,20,60,112,44,88,24,144,

%N Even legs of primitive Pythagorean triples (with multiplicity) sorted with respect to increasing hypotenuse.

%C The primary key is the increasing length of the hypotenuse, A020882. If there is more than one solution with that hypotenuse, the (secondary) sorting key is the (increasing) even leg - that is, the terms go in the increasing order. [Corrected by _Andrey Zabolotskiy_, Oct 31 2019]

%C Only the even legs 'b' of reduced triangles with gcd(a,b,c)=1, a^2+b^2=c^2, a=q^2-p^2, b=2*p*q, c=q^2+p^2, gcd(p,q)=1 are listed.

%F a(n) = sqrt(A020882(n)^2-A180620(n)^2).

%e a(13) = sqrt(A020882(13)^2-A180620(13)^2) = sqrt(85^2-77^2) = sqrt(1296) = 36.

%Y Cf. A020882, A180620.
