Solution

The correct option is A Spiral

The Spiral of Theodorus starts with an isosceles right triangle with both legs of length 1. More right triangles are added, one leg the hypotenuse of the previous triangle, the other, outside leg, always of length 1 and the shape looks like spiral.

Hence, it is spiral.
