Formula
diameter = 2 × radiuscircumference = 2 × π × radiusarea = π × radius²
Starting from another measurement: radius = circumference ÷ (2π) or radius = √(area ÷ π).
Worked example
Radius 5:
- Diameter = 2 × 5 = 10
- Circumference = 2 × π × 5 = 31.4159
- Area = π × 5² = 78.5398
From an area of 100: radius = √(100 ÷ π) = 5.6419.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find the area of a circle from its radius?
Multiply π by the radius squared. For a radius of 5, the area is π × 25 = 78.5398 square units.
How do I find the circumference from the diameter?
Multiply the diameter by π. A circle with diameter 10 has circumference 10 × π = 31.4159.
How do I get the radius from the area?
Divide the area by π and take the square root. For an area of 100, r = √(100 ÷ π) = 5.6419.
What units does the answer use?
Any, as long as you stay consistent. Lengths come out in the unit you entered and the area in that unit squared, so a radius in centimetres gives an area in square centimetres.
