Start with A004018. See the formula listed there. Pythagorean triangles
can't have zero-length sides, so subtract 4 to eliminate the 4 points on the
axes. Triangles can't have negative length sides, so divide that number by
4 to get the solutions in the first quadrant only. In your case, 1105^2 =
5^2 13^2 17^2, so the number of lattice points is 4(3)(3)(3). The number of
triangles is (4(3)(3)(3)-4)/4 = 13
