In order to began making my spiral I started off with a right triangle. The first triangle starting off with one inch. Adding each triangle starting off with a 1 inch line, connecting the previous triangle to the next. I continued this process until I couldn't make no more. With each triangle the hypotenuse continuously increases.
Doing this project was fun and brought back some math memories from the 8th grade.
