How to use this calculator
- Enter the known values in the units shown. Results update as you type.
- Where results are editable, change one to solve backwards. Lock a value to hold it fixed.
- Use the worked example to check the method. Reset restores the starting fields.

Formula and method
Boundary length 10π centimeters gives radius 5 centimeters.
d = 2r; C = 2πr; A = πr²
Worked example
Enter these known values and leave the other values blank.
- Circumference (c)
- 31.4159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510582097494459230781640628620899862803483 cm
- Area (A)
- 78.54 cm²
- Diameter (d)
- 10 cm
- Radius (r)
- 5 cm
Assumptions and limitations
- The model describes a Euclidean circle. Radius is half the diameter; boundary length and enclosed area have different physical dimensions.
- Length and area selectors are converted before calculation. A squared-length unit is not the same as a length unit.
- The supplied measurements must be mutually consistent. Clear an unknown value rather than supplying conflicting dimensions.
- Arithmetic uses 64 significant digits and full-precision π where applicable; displayed values are rounded separately.
Common questions
Can I enter an area to recover a radius or diameter?
Use an area input in a squared-length unit and clear the length you want to infer. The positive geometric root is used.
