COMMENTS

Denominator of circle radius r(n) is A143025(n+2). The integral radius appearing at n = 2, 6, 10, 14, ..., = 1, 5, 13, 25, ..., respectively which is A001844(n/4 - 1/2). Floor (r(n)) = A001971(n). For the case of sagitta = n and chord length = 1, the numerator and the denominator will be A053755(n) and A008590(n) respectively. See illustration in links.

FORMULA

a(n) = numerator(n^2/8 + 1/2).
