It can also be represented as the sum of 170 and its reverse:

241^2+29040^2=29041^2

241=(15+4i)(15-4i)=15^2+4^2, conjugate factorization
241=(15+4i)(4+15i)(-i), factoring symmetric with unit.
241 is a prime number with completion in January. The separability criterion for this number is that: a number is divisible by 241 if and only if
a) The sum of their scores over 217 times the units is 241 or 241K.
b) The difference between the tens and units is 24 times 0, 241 or 241K.
We demonstrate via example:
241*37=8917
a) 891+7*217=2410=241*10
b) 891-7*24=723=241*3
