Comments

The first cyclic quadrilateral in this sequence with sides (2,3,5,7) is analogous to an obtuse triangle in that the circumcenter does not lie within the bounds of the quadrilateral. Thereafter, the quadrilaterals have circumcenters that lie within the bounds of the quadrilateral.

Examples

			a(2)=6 because a cyclic quadrilateral with sides (3,5,7,11) has circumradius = 5.56365...

Formula

The circumradius R of a cyclic quadrilateral with sides a, b, c, d is given by the Parameshvara's circumradius formula R = sqrt((a*b+c*d)*(a*c+b*d)*(a*d+b*c)/((s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)*(s-d)))/4 where s = (a+b+c+d)/2.
