218 - Perfect Right-angled Triangles

Problem 218 / Challenge #218: Perfect Right-angled Triangles

Consider the right angled triangle with sides a = 7 , b = 24 and c = 25 . The area of this triangle is 84 , which is divisible by the perfect numbers 6 and 28 .
Moreover it is a primitive right angled triangle as gcd ( a , b ) = 1 and gcd ( b , c ) = 1 .
Also c is a perfect square.

We will call a right angled triangle perfect if
-it is a primitive right angled triangle
-its hypotenuse is a perfect square.

We will call a right angled triangle super-perfect if
-it is a perfect right angled triangle and
-its area is a multiple of the perfect numbers 6 and 28 .

How many perfect right-angled triangles with c 10 16 exist that are not super-perfect?

ProjectEuler+ Problem Statement

The Project Euler problem is equivalent to the ProjectEuler+ challenge with q = 1 and n = 10 16 .
