Double a triangle (Posted on 2015-02-19) Difficulty: 3 of 5
In the sequence of triangular numbers, some numbers are twice another.

For example t(20)=210 which is twice t(14)=105.

Characterize all such numbers.

Easy bonus: Explain why (except for the trivial case) there are no square numbers that are twice another.
