Comments

a(3*k+1)*a(3*k+2) / (a(3*k+1)+a(3*k+2)+a(3*k+3)) is always an integer for k >= 0. Also note that a(3*k+1)*a(3*k+2)/2 is never a perfect square. - Altug Alkan, Apr 08 2016

Examples

			The first few triples are [3, 4, 5], [5, 12, 13], [7, 24, 25], [8, 15, 17], [9, 40, 41], [11, 60, 61], [12, 35, 37], [13, 84, 85], [15, 112, 113], [16, 63, 65], [17, 144, 145], [19, 180, 181], [20, 21, 29], [20, 99, 101], ... - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Dec 15 2015
