Find the radius from diameter, circumference, or area

The radius calculator finds the radius of a circle when you know the diameter, circumference, or area. All other circle properties are computed alongside the radius.

How to find radius

From diameter: r = d / 2. From circumference: r = C / (2 * pi). From area: r = sqrt(A / pi). Each formula isolates the radius from a different known measurement.

Limitations

Applies to perfect circles only. Input must be a positive number.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find the radius from the area?

Divide the area by pi, then take the square root: r = sqrt(A / pi).

Is radius always half the diameter?

Yes, by definition. The diameter is a line through the centre from edge to edge; the radius goes from the centre to the edge.
