Radius of Circle given Arc Length Calculator

Calculate Radius





Formula

The formula to calculate the Radius of a Circle given its arc length and central angle is:

\[ r = \frac{l_{\text{Arc}}}{\angle_{\text{Central}}} \]

Definition

Radius of Circle is the length of any line segment joining the center and any point on the Circle. Arc Length of Circle is the length of a piece of curve cut from the circumference of the Circle at a particular central angle. Central Angle of Circle is an angle whose apex (vertex) is the center O of a Circle and whose legs (sides) are radii intersecting the circle in two distinct points.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ r = \frac{15}{2.9670597283898} \approx 5.05550995703763 \]

The Radius of the Circle is approximately 5.05550995703763 meters.
