Frequently Asked Questions

What is a circumference calculator?

A circumference calculator finds the distance around a circle. It can also solve the radius, diameter, and area from one known circle measurement.

How do you calculate circumference from radius?

Multiply the radius by 2π. The formula is C = 2πr, where r is the radius.

How do you calculate circumference from diameter?

Multiply the diameter by π. The formula is C = πd, where d is the diameter.

Can I find radius from circumference?

Yes. Divide the circumference by 2π. The formula is r = C / (2π).

Why are area units squared?

Area measures two-dimensional space, so it uses squared units such as cm² or in². Radius, diameter, and circumference use regular length units.
