Comments

By "trapezoid" here is meant a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides.

Without loss of generality we assume b=d and for the parallel sides c < a. e and f are uniquely determined by e = f = sqrt((c(a^2-b^2) + a(b^2-c^2))/(a-c)). The smallest possible isosceles trapezoid has side lengths a=4, c=3, b=d=2 and diagonals e=f=4.

Examples

			a(7)=2 because there are two possible trapezoids: a=5, c=3, b=d=7, e=f=8 and a=7, c=4, b=d=6, e=f=8.
