A336888 Irregular triangle read by rows: row n gives the pairs x(n)_j, y(n)_j, for j = 1, 2, ..., A336889(n), such that the legs of nonrectangular (nondegenerate) triangles X(n)_j = sqrt(x(n)_j), Y(n)_j = sqrt(y(n)_j), with base Z(n) = sqrt(z(n)), and integers 1 <= x(n)_j <= y(n)_j <= z(n), lead to primitive quartets (x(n)_j, y(n)_j, z(n), A(n)_j) with positive integer area A(n)_j. Hence z(n) = A337215(n) and A(n)_j = A337216(n, j). 3

COMMENTS
The length of row n is 2*A336889(n).
Row n >= 1 of this irregular triangle is obtained from row n of A336885 after elimination of all pairs x(n)_j = A336885(n, 2*j-1), y(n)_j = A336885(n, 2*j), for j = 1, 2, ..., A336886(n), which lead to imprimitive quartets (x(n)_j, y(n)_j, z(n), A(n)_j) with z(n) = A334818(n) and A(n)_j = A336887(n, j).
Note that the present triples (x(n)_j, y(n)_j, z(n)) with x(n)_j = a(n, 2*j - 1), y(n)_j = a(n, 2*j), for j = 1, 2, ..., A336889(n), and z(n) = A337215(n), are not always primitive. E.g., (a(4, 1), a(4, 2)) = (2, 4) with z(4) = 10 survived the purgation of row n = 4 of A336885 because the area is A_1(4) = A336887(4, 1) = 1 = A337216(4, 1). Similarly (4, 10) with area 3 survived in this row, but the pair (8, 10) with area 4 has been eliminated because it doubles the quartet (4, 5, 5, 2) obtained from row n = 1.

FORMULA
Bisection of index k: With a(n, 2*j-1) = x(n)_j and a(n, 2*j) = y(n)_j, and z(n) = A337215(n), where 1 <= x(n)_j <= y(n)_j <= z(n), the nonrectangular triangle with sides (sqrt(x(n)_j), sqrt(y(n)_j), sqrt(z(n))) has positive integer area A(n)_j = A337216(n, j), and the quartet (x(n)_j, y(n)_j, z(n), A(n)_j) is primitive, for j = 1, 2, ..., A336889(n), and n >= 1.
