Conjecture: A103974(n)^2 - A011922(n)^2 = ( 4*A007655(n) )^2

[David C Terr]

I proved that A103974(n) = 4*A001353(n)^2 + 1, or at least the latter is a 
subsequence.

        Subject:        Conjecture:  A103974(n)^2 - A011922(n)^2  =  ( 4*A007655(n)  )^2

Hello Seqfans, 
        Just noticed Zak Seidov's nice A103974: 
"Smaller sides (a) in (a,a,a+1)-integer triangle with integer area."
 
Can anyone prove the following conjectures? 
 
(1) A103974(n)^2 - A011922(n)^2  =  ( 4*A007655(n)  )^2 
 
(2) all triangles meeting the criteria in A103974 are given by (1).
 
 
If true, then we have a formulas for the triangles of A103974 from:
 
(3) 1/2 base of triangles = A011922(n) = ( A103974(n) + 1 )/2 
 
(4) 1/4 height of triangles = A007655(n) 
 
and by employing the nice formulas for A011922 and A007655.
 
 
The connections seem rather significant. 
 
See below for sequences ...
