Find all integer sided triangles whose area and perimeter have the same numerical value.
Area A and perimeter p have the same numerical value if and only if the
inradius r is 2, since A=pr/2. The question arises then as to how
many triangles have integer sides and a given integer inradius
r=1,2,.... This turns out to be a known sequence -- See OEIS
id:A120062 where the first few terms are 1,
5,13,18,15,....
