COMMENT

For n>1, short leg of primitive Pythagorean triangles having an angle nearing pi/3 with larger values of sides.[Complete triple (X,Y,Z),X<Y<Z is given by X=a(n),Y=A001353(n),Z=A120893(n), with recurrence relations Y(i+1)=2*{Y(i)-(-1)^i} + 3*a(i) ; Z(i+1)=2*{2*Z(i)-a(i-1)} - 3*(-1)^i] A120893(n)=2*a(n)-(-1)^n.
