Unusual number triads

Puzzling Asked on June 27, 2021

Let’s have the following equations.

$1388^2+803^2=137^3$

$236^2+115^2=41^3$

$666^2+413^2=85^3$

As you can verify by visual inspection the numbers of each triad have (GCD)=1.

Question 1) How can we obtain more such triads?

Question 2) What is the required method to find such triads?

No previous answers addressed the GCD=1 part, so here it is.

First of all, note that

Then use happystar's method to get the general formula for $A^2 + B^2 = C^3$:

So we get

Then the requirement is

The LHS simplifies into

Therefore,
