COMMENT

Every such prime p has a unique representation as p = r^2 + s^2 with 1 <= r < s. The corresponding right triangle has legs of lengths s^2 - r^2 and 2rs, and area rs(s^2 - r^2). For p>5, this is divisible by 30.

Calling A002330(n) and A002331(n) respectively u and v, we have a(n)=u*v*(u-v)*(u+v), for n>1. - Lekraj Beedassy (blekraj(AT)yahoo.com), Mar 12 2002

The corresponding Pythagorean triple (A, B, C) with A^2 = B^2 + C^2, (A>B>C) is given by {A002144(n), A002365(n), A002366(n)}, so that a(n)=B*C/2*30=A002365(n)*A002366(n)/60. - Lekraj Beedassy (blekraj(AT)yahoo.com), Oct 27 2003

EXAMPLE

The 7-th prime of the form 4k+1 is 53 = 2^2 + 7^2. So the right triangle has sides 7^2 - 2^2 = 45, 2*2*7 = 28, and 53. Its area is 1/2 * 45 * 28 = 630, so a(7) = 630/30 = 21.

MATHEMATICA

a30[p_] := For[r=1, True, r++, If[IntegerQ[s=Sqrt[p-r^2]], Return[r s(s^2-r^2)/30]]]; a30/@Select[Prime/@Range[4, 150], Mod[ #, 4]==1&]
