The areas of the primitive cyclic quadrilaterals of this sequence are in A273691.
This sequence contains A233315 (768, 936, 1200,...).
In Euclidean geometry, a cyclic quadrilateral is a quadrilateral whose vertices all lie on a single circle. This circle is called the circumcircle or circumscribed, and the vertices are said to be concyclic.
The area A of a cyclic quadrilateral with sides a, b, c, d is given by Brahmagupta’s formula : A = sqrt((s - a)(s -b)(s - c)(s - d)) where s, the semiperimeter is s= (a+b+c+d)/2.
In a cyclic quadrilateral with successive vertices A, B, C, D and sides a = AB, b = BC, c = CD, and d = DA, the lengths of the diagonals p = AC and q = BD can be expressed in terms of the sides as
p = sqrt((ac+bd)(ad+bc)/(ab+cd)) and q = sqrt((ac+bd)(ab+cd)/(ad+bc)).
The circumradius R (the radius of the circumcircle) is given by :
R = sqrt((ab+cd)(ac+bd)(ad+bc))/4A.
The corresponding sides of a(n) are not unique, for example for a(6) = 768 => (a,b,c,d) = (25, 25, 25, 39) or (a,b,c,d) = (14, 30, 30, 50).
The following table gives the first values (A, a, b, c, d, p, q, R) where A is the integer area, a, b, c, d are the integer sides of the cyclic quadrilateral, p, q are the integer diagonals, and R .

Examples

			192 is in the sequence because, for (a,b,c,d) = (7,15,15,25) we find:
s = (7+15+15+25)/2 = 31;
A = sqrt((31-7)(31-15)(31-15)(31-25)) = 192;
p = sqrt((7*15+15*25)*(7*25+15*15)/(7*15+15*25)) = 20;
q = sqrt((7*15+15*25)*(7*15+15*25)/(7*25+15*15)) = 24.
