Possible Solution:
import Image, math

    t = (100 * 100 - 1) - t
    shell = int((math.sqrt(t) + 1) / 2)
    leg = 0 if (shell == 0) else int((t - (2 * shell - 1) ** 2) / 2 / shell)
    elt = t - (2 * shell - 1) ** 2 - 2 * shell * leg - shell + 1

        x, y = shell, elt
    elif leg == 1:

    elif leg == 2:
        x, y = -shell, -elt
    else:

    return (49 + x, 50 - y)
