Divisibility both by 5 and 13 means divisibility by 65. Consider infinitely many positive integers of the form n=65k+4, kNn = 65k + 4, \ k \in \mathbb{N}. Then

4n2+1=4(65k+4)2+1=4(4225k2+520k+16)+1=16900k2+2080k+65=65(260k2+32k+1)4n^2 + 1 = 4(65k + 4)^2 + 1 = 4(4225k^2 + 520k + 16) + 1 = 16900k^2 + 2080k + 65 = 65(260k^2 + 32k + 1)is divisible by 65, hence it is divisible both by 5 and 13.
