A343893 Side c of integer-sided primitive triangles (a, b, c) where side a is the harmonic mean of the 2 other sides b and c, i.e., 2/a = 1/b + 1/c with b < a < c.

Comments

The triples (a, b, c) are displayed in increasing order of side a, and if sides a coincide then in increasing order of the side b.

The sequence is not increasing because a(4) = 35 > a(5) = 28, but, these sides c are listed in increasing order in A020886.

For the corresponding primitive triples and miscellaneous properties and references, see A343891.

Examples

			a(3) = 20, because the third triple is (15, 12, 20) with side c = 20, satisfying 1/20 = 2/15 - 1/12 and 15-12 < 20 < 15+12.
