Triangle, pentagonal, and hexagonal numbers are generated by the following formulae:

Triangle $T_n=n(n+1)/2$ $1, 3, 6, 10, 15, \dots$
Pentagonal $P_n=n(3n - 1)/2$ $1, 5, 12, 22, 35, \dots$
Hexagonal $H_n=n(2n - 1)$ $1, 6, 15, 28, 45, \dots$

It can be verified that $T_{285} = P_{165} = H_{143} = 40755$.

Find the next triangle number that is also pentagonal and hexagonal.
