Comments

a(n-1) and a(n+1) are the solutions for c if b=a(n) in (b^2+c^2)/(b*c+1)=576 and there are no other pairs of solutions apart from consecutive pairs of terms in this sequence.

Formula

a(n) = 576*a(n-1)-a(n-2).

a(n) = 12/(17*sqrt(287))*(((-1/(288+17287))^(n))+((288+(17*sqrt(287)))^(n))).
