# --description--
|
|
|
|
The four right-angled triangles with sides (9,12,15), (12,16,20), (5,12,13) and (12,35,37) all have one of the shorter sides (catheti) equal to 12. It can be shown that no other integer sided right-angled triangle exists with one of the catheti equal to 12.
|
|
|
|
Find the smallest integer that can be the length of a cathetus of exactly 47547 different integer sided right-angled triangles.

`trianglesSharingCathetus()` should return `96818198400000`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.strictEqual(trianglesSharingCathetus(), 96818198400000);
|
|
```
