Circle Calculator — Instantly Find Diameter, Circumference & Area
A circle calculator is a tool used to compute key properties of a circle—such as diameter, circumference, and area—based on a single known input: the radius.
Whether you're a student, teacher, engineer, or DIY enthusiast, this calculator can help you quickly solve circle-related geometry problems without doing the math by hand.
What This Calculator Does
Using just the radius, it instantly calculates:
- Diameter: Distance across the circle through the center
- Circumference: The total distance around the circle
- Area: The space inside the circle
How to Use the Circle Calculator
Step 1:
Enter the radius of the circle in the input box.
Example: 10
(for a 10 cm radius)
Step 2:
Click the “Calculate” button.
Step 3:
Your results will appear below, showing:
- Diameter (2 × radius)
- Circumference (2 × π × radius)
- Area (π × radius²)
All outputs are shown in centimeters and square centimeters.
Why Use a Circle Calculator?
Manual calculations can be tedious and prone to error. With this calculator, you:
- Save time
- Reduce mistakes
- Work faster on assignments or projects
- Get consistent results using the mathematical constant π ≈ 3.14159
FAQ: Circle Calculator
Q1: What is the formula for the diameter of a circle?
A1: Diameter = 2 × radius
Q2: How do you calculate circumference?
A2: Circumference = 2 × π × radius
Q3: What is the formula for the area of a circle?
A3: Area = π × radius²
Q4: Can I enter the diameter instead of the radius?
A4: This calculator currently accepts radius only, but you can manually divide your diameter by 2 first.
Q5: What unit is used?
A5: All inputs and outputs are in centimeters (cm) and square centimeters (cm²).
Q6: Can I use this for real-world tasks like cutting circles in materials?
A6: Yes, as long as your radius input matches your real-world measurement unit, the results will be accurate.
