FORMULA
a(n) = sqrt(A080109(n)^2 - A253804(n)^2)/4, n >= 1.
EXAMPLE
n = 7: A080175(7) = 7890481 = 53^4 = 2809^2; A002144(7)^4 = A253804(7)^2 + (4*a(7))^2 = 2385^2 + (4*371)^2.
The other Pythagorean triangle with hypotenuse 53^2 = 2809 has odd leg A253802(7) = 1241 and even leg 4*A253303(7) = 4*630 = 2520: 53^4 = 1241^2 + (4*630)^2.
