COMMENT

Here a primitive Heronian triangle has integer sides a,b,c with GCD(a,b,c) = 1 and integral area. The perimeter is always even. Cheney's article contains many theorems about these triangles.

EXAMPLE

12 is on this list because the triangle with sides 3, 4, 5 has integral area and perimeter 12.

MATHEMATICA

nn=150; lst={}; Do[s=(a+b+c)/2; If[IntegerQ[s] && GCD[a, b, c]==1, area2=s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c); If[area2>0 && IntegerQ[Sqrt[area2]], AppendTo[lst, 2s]]], {a, nn}, {b, a}, {c, b}]; Union[lst]
