A372617 Irregular table read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of k-gons, k>=2, among all distinct circles that can be constructed from the 3 vertices and the equally spaced 3*n points placed on the sides of an equilateral triangle, using only a compass.

Comments

A circle is constructed for every pair of the 3 + 3*n points, the first point defines the circle's center while the second the radius distance.
