ROSECODE 322
Homocentric circles
1. Set R2 = 2
2. Draw x2 + y2 = R2 circle.
3. Next find the smallest square with vertices on lattice points such that it inscribes the circle but doesn't touch it.
4. Set R2 = a2 + b2 where a, b are the coordinates of the one of any 4 vertices.
5. Go to step 2
At the second iteration we would have x2 + y2 = 5 (12 + 22 = 5).
At the third iteration we would have x2 + y2 = 13 (22 + 32 = 13).
What would R2 be equal to at the 50th iteration?
Answer format: Number
Example: 13 for the third iteration
