For n <= 200, the number of distinct integer-sided triangles inscribed in a circle of radius A009003(n) whose inradius are integers belongs to the set E = {1, 5, 10, 12, 38} where a(168) = 38 (see the table given in reference). Is the set E infinite when n is infinite?
a(m) > 1 for m = 7, 18, 26, 31, 35, ... and {A009003(m)} = {25, 50, 65, 75, 85, ...} = {A009177}.
We observe geometric properties:
If a(n) = 1, the unique triangle is a right triangle.
If a(n) = 5, we find two right triangles, two isosceles triangles and another triangle (neither isosceles nor right triangle).
If a(n) = 10, we find three right triangles, two isosceles triangles and five other triangles.
If a(n) = 12, we find four right triangles and eight other triangles.
The area A of a triangle whose sides have lengths u, v, and w is given by Heron's formula: A = sqrt(s*(s-u)*(s-v)*(s-w)), where s = (u+v+w)/2.
The inradius r is given by r = A/s and the circumradius is given by R = u*v*w/4A.

EXAMPLE
|
a(7) = 5 because there exists 5 distinct triangles of integer circumradius R = A009003(7)= 25 with the corresponding integer inradius {4, 6, 8, 10, 12}.
