Theodorus stopped at the 16th triangle, whose hypotenuse measures sqrt(17), because from the next triangle his spiral began to overlap (see A072895). %C A373785 The area of the k-th triangle is (1/2) * sqrt(k), so the area A of the spiral constructed by Theodorus is A = (1/2)*Sum_{k=1..16} sqrt(k) = 22.234598300071... %C A373785 The perimeter of the spiral of Theodorus (up to the 16th triangle) is 17 + sqrt(17). %H A373785 Wikipedia, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiral_of_Theodorus">Spiral of Theodorus</a>. %F A373785 Equals (1/2)*Sum_{k=1..16} sqrt(k). %e A373785 22.234598300071301078545770187447994733070569... %t A373785 RealDigits[(1/2)*Sum[Sqrt[k],{k,16}],10,120][[1]] (* _Stefano Spezia_, Jun 23 2024 *) %Y A373785 Cf.
