Dear Giovanni and others,

The French have a custom to send New Year's greetings at the end of January. So I got the idea to play a little with the charming geometrical problem, number 7 below. The side lengths of the triangles, where all the sides are integral and satisfy the condition of green squares x+y=z, form each a nice sequence as the triangle grows. The smallest side goes like this: 13,17,25,37,41,53,61, …

Happy New Year,
Veikko Pohjola
