Spiral Construction (Posted on 2024-12-05) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Construct a spiral by starting at the origin of a coordinate system, moving 1 unit to the right to the point (1, 0), then turning left 45 degrees and moving ½ unit, then turning left 45 degrees and moving ⅓ unit, turning left 45 degrees and moving ¼ unit, etc.

What are the (x, y) coordinates of the limiting point of this spiral?
