Formulas
| Property | Formula |
|---|---|
| Diameter | d = 2r |
| Circumference | C = 2πr = πd |
| Area | A = πr² |
Example
Radius = 5:
- Diameter = 10
- Circumference = 2π × 5 ≈ 31.416
- Area = π × 25 ≈ 78.540
Frequently asked
What is the formula for the area of a circle?
Area = π × r². For a radius of 5, Area = π × 25 ≈ 78.54.
What is the formula for circumference?
Circumference = 2πr = πd. It is the perimeter of the circle.
How do I find the radius from the area?
Rearrange Area = πr² to get r = √(Area / π).
How do I find the radius from the circumference?
Rearrange C = 2πr to get r = C / (2π).
What units does this calculator use?
Whatever unit you enter the value in. If you enter 5 cm, all outputs are in cm (or cm²).
