We define a Partial Pythagorean Triangle (PPT) as a right triangle wherein the hypotenuse and at least one leg are integers. Thus, the triples
and
represent a PPT, while
,
and
do not.
Given the limit P, find the area of the PPT with perimeter
, such that the ratio of the areas of the triangle's circumcircle to its incircle,
, is as small as possible.
Please present the answer rounded-off to the nearest integer.

Several tests are wrong (verified using symbolic numbers). Test 6 should be 970225, Test 8 should be 96049800, Test 9 should be 559819260, Test 10 should be 38034750625, and a suspect higher tests might also be incorrect. These results are consistent with what I expected by review of Lucas and Pell numbers.
