How To Use the Circle Calculator
A circle is a 2D shape defined as all points at a fixed distance (radius) from a central point.
- Radius (r): The distance from the center point to any point on the edge.
- Diameter (d): The longest distance across the circle passing through the center (
d = 2r). - Circumference (C): The total perimeter distance around the circle (
C = 2Ï€r). - Area (A): The enclosed surface measurement (
A = πr²).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
The area of a circle is calculated using the formula A = πr², where r is the radius and π is approximately 3.14159.
To find the radius when circumference is known, use r = C / (2Ï€).
A sector is a pie-shaped portion enclosed by two radii and an arc. Arc length is the outer curved distance of that sector.
Chord length is calculated using c = 2r × sin(θ / 2), where θ is the central angle in degrees.
Pi (Ï€) is the constant ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159265.
