A365901 Irregular triangle read by rows giving trajectory beginning with A002182(n) under recursion of x -> f(x) until reaching 1, where f(x) = x/rad(x), rad(x) = A007947(x).

Examples
Row 1 = {1} since h(1) = 1, already 1.
Row 2 = {2, 1} since h(2) = 2, 2/rad(2) = 2/2 = 1, reaching 1.
Row 3 = {4, 2, 1} since h(3) = 4, 4/rad(4) = 4/2 = 2, and we follow the trajectory of 2 thereafter.
Row 6 = {24, 4, 2, 1} since h(6) = 24, 24/rad(24) = 24/6 = 4, and we follow the trajectory of 4 thereafter.
Row 14 = {720, 24, 4, 2, 1} since h(14) = 720, 720/rad(720) = 720/30 = 24, which appends row 6 thereafter.
