Dear Student
 
For any hydrogen like element:
 

where

 is the wavelength of the light emitted in vacuum;
 is the Rydberg constant for this element;
 is the atomic number, i.e. the number of protons in the atomic nucleus of this element;
 and  are integers such that .
For hydrogen, Z = 1
For Helium, Z = 2
 
Putting in the above expression:
 
λhelium = λhydrogen / 4 (for same transition) = 4860/4 = 1215 angstrom
 
We hope that satisfies your query.
