COMMENTS
The n-th row of the triangle is of length 2^(n-1), since a product of n distinct primes congruent to 1 (mod 4) has 2^(n-1) solutions to being the sum of two squares.

In the second row, calculations are as follows. 5*13 is the product of the first two primes congruent to 1 (mod 4), and 65 = 1^2 + 8^2 = 4^2 + 7^2, so the second row is 1, 4.
