What this tool does

Everything about a circle follows from one measurement. Give the radius and you get the area, the distance around the edge and the diameter; if you only know the diameter, halve it first. The units shown are metres, but any consistent unit works — enter centimetres and the area comes out in square centimetres.

Formula

A = π × r² , C = 2 × π × r

  • Mixing units is the most common source of error. Convert every input to the units shown next to each field before calculating.
