Circle formulas
- Radius and diameter:
r = d/2
- Area of a circle formula:
A = πr2 = πd2/4
- Circumference of a circle:
C = 2πr = πd
Where:
A = area
C = circumference
r = radius
π = pi = 3.14159
√ = square root
How does this circle calculator works?
Depending on what figure needs to be calculated this circle calculator requires to input only one circle variable as explained here:
- In case the radius (r) value of a circle is provided it will calculate its area (A) and circumference (C ) by using these two equations:
A = πr2
C = 2πr
- If the circle area (A) is known it will determine its radius (r) and circumference (C):
r = √(A / π)
C = 2πr
- By giving the circumference (C) of a circle it will compute its area (A) and radius (r):
r = C/2π
A = πr2
