COMMENTS
These sets consist of distinct integer-sided trapezoids formed within the equilateral triangular grid of side n units such that the total area is n^2.
A trapezoid whose base angles are 60 degrees with larger base b and legs s is denoted by {b X s} here.
EXAMPLE
Sequence has 15 sets for n = 15:
{(2 X 1), (4 X 1), (4 X 3), (5 X 4)},
{(2 X 1), (5 X 1), (7 X 1), (7 X 2)},
{(2 X 1), (5 X 1), (5 X 2), (5 X 3)},
{(2 X 1), (4 X 2), (7 X 1), (5 X 3)},
{(3 X 1), (4 X 1), (7 X 1), (7 X 2)},
{(3 X 1), (4 X 1), (7 X 1), (5 X 4)},
{(3 X 1), (3 X 2), (4 X 2), (5 X 4)},
{(3 X 1), (3 X 2), (4 X 3), (5 X 3)},
{(3 X 1), (5 X 1), (6 X 1), (7 X 2)},
{(3 X 1), (6 X 1), (4 X 2), (5 X 3)},
{(3 X 1), (6 X 1), (7 X 1), (6 X 2)},
{(4 X 1), (5 X 1), (7 X 1), (6 X 2)},
{(3 X 2), (4 X 2), (7 X 1), (5 X 2)},
{(5 X 1), (6 X 1), (7 X 1), (5 X 2)},
{(5 X 1), (4 X 2), (7 X 1), (4 X 3)}.
Therefore a(7) = 15.
