The square root spiral starts with a base triangle of sides 1 and 1, giving a hypotenuse of root 2. Each successive triangle adds a side of 1, yielding hypotenuses of root 2, root 3, root 4, and continuing sequentially.
Find the lengths of the hypotenuses of all the right triangles in Fig. 3.14 which is referred to as the square root spiral.
