I calculated the spiral length using this formula and compared it to the actual length from a helix 3d cad shape they are exactly the same .. well done thank you
Was needing this for a CAD model and couldn't think of how to get started. This equation does make sense, but had to prove it to myself before I'd feel comfortable using it parametrically. If you think of a helix as an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder (thanks Big Bang Theory) and you were to unroll that inclined plane (triangle) out of the cylinder you'd get a triangle that's n*p tall and n*c wide. With Pythagorean theorem we know that the hypotenuse is equal to square root of the sum square of the two other sides. Since the hypotenuse of the triangle is the length of your spiral that's what you're trying to get, you would take (N*P)^2 + (N*C)^2=(Length of Spiral)^2. Square rooting everything you get SQRT((N*P)^2 + (N*C)^2)=Length of Spiral. Then some factoring gives you SQRT(N^2(P^2+C^2))=Length of Spiral, and then you can pull the N^2 term out of the square root (taking the square root as you do) getting you N*SQRT(P^2+C^2)=Length of Spiral (The equation from the video).
The circumference at 2 significant digits is 9.42. If you use that in the formula you get 92.73. If you let the spreadsheet calculate PI then you get 92.83. It's just rounding for the video.

Thank you for the formula and the explanation. This is just what I was looking for!
Glad it was helpful!

Thank you very much
You are welcome
do tut of how to find helex pls
Is D inside dia.? Or outside dia.?
thank,s you brother ,
Always welcome
wow very thanks thanks
Most welcome
Sir which IS code this formula is based on? Because i need to explain this with some foundation to my junior.
good bro thanks
You're welcome!

good
Thanks
D = 2r = r + r
C = 2 × pi × r .... isn't it, sir ?
isnt 9.4*9.4+2*2=88.36+4=92.36? how did he get 92.73?
Thts my question too🤦🏻

SUPER ..... GOOD
Thanks GAURAV
N=7
5√92.73 = 2.47 ..... or at least that's what I'm getting
..... I was actually looking for a response 😳
