%N A283222 Integer area of integer-sided triangle such that the sides are of the form p, p+2, 2(p-1), where p, p+2 and (p-1)/2 are prime numbers.
%C A283222 Subsequence of A257049.
%C A283222 The area of a triangle (a,b,c) is given by Heron's formula A = sqrt(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)) where its side lengths are a, b, c and semiperimeter s = (a+b+c)/2.
%C A283222 We observe that the sides of each triangle are of the form (k^2+2, k^2+4, 2k^2+2) and Heron's formula gives immediately the area k(2k^2+4) => a(n)= 2*A086381(n)*A253639(n).
%C A283222 The corresponding primes p are a subsequence of A056899 (primes of the form n^2+2): 11, 227, 2027, 140627, 4223027, 48650627, 95942027, 171479027, ...
%C A283222 We observe that p == 11 mod 72, or p == 11, 83 mod 144. For p>11, p == 27, 227, 627 mod 1000.
%C A283222 An interesting property: the greatest prime divisor of a(n) is equal to p. For instance, the prime divisors of 6810 are {2, 3, 5, 227} => p = 227 is the length of the smallest side of the triangle (227, 229, 452).

%F A283222 a(n) == 6 mod 30.
%e A283222 66 is in the sequence because the area of the triangle (11, 13, 20) is given by Heron's formula with s = 22 and A = sqrt(22(22-11)(22-13)(22-20)) = 66. The numbers 11, 13 and 5 = (11-1)/2 are primes.
