What is Circle Calculator?
The circle calculator computes all four fundamental circle measurements — radius, diameter, area, and circumference — from any single input value. Enter any one measurement and instantly get the other three.
How to use
- 1 Select which value you know: radius, diameter, area, or circumference.
- 2 Enter the known value in the input field.
- 3 Click Calculate to see all four measurements.
- 4 Results update automatically as you type.
- 5 All results use π ≈ 3.14159265358979.
Formula
Example calculation
If radius = 5: Diameter = 10. Area = π × 25 = 78.54. Circumference = 2π × 5 = 31.42.
Frequently asked questions
What is pi (π)?
Pi is the mathematical constant representing the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. It is approximately 3.14159265 and is irrational (non-terminating, non-repeating).
What units does this calculator use?
The calculator is unit-agnostic. If radius is in meters, circumference is in meters and area is in square meters. Use consistent units throughout.
How do I find the radius from the area?
Divide the area by π, then take the square root: r = √(A/π). For example, area = 50: r = √(50/π) ≈ 3.99.
What is the difference between circumference and perimeter?
Circumference is the specific term for the perimeter of a circle. Both refer to the total length of the boundary.
Can I enter a decimal value?
Yes. All inputs accept decimal values. The calculator works with any positive real number.
