Re: Puzzle Contest-141

HAI smileey ur approach. is good....but ur answer is correct ,only half the way... but rest goes on like this... the base of the pythagorus traingle.. takes the diameter of the cylinder then it becomes...dia*pi.=32....so the diameter becomes 10.19
hence now. length of creep for one twist becomes sqrt((10.19^2)+(60^2))=60.84
so length of complete creep is (4*60.84)=243.36..
so the answer is 243.36..... but clue for this i got from ur solution... only
