Arc Length Calculator The Arc Length Calculator finds the length of a circular arc from the circle's radius and the central angle. The formula used is: Arc length = r × θ (with θ in radians) = r × angle × π/180; Fraction of circle = angle/360. — free online calculator.

Formula

Arc length = r × θ (in radians) = r × angle × π/180; Fraction = angle/360
  • Arc Length Calculator calculates its result from Angle. It uses the formula Arc length = r × θ (in radians) = r × angle × π/180; Fraction = angle/360. Change any input to recalculate the result instantly.
  • The main inputs are Radius, Central Angle. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
  • Keep comparable quantities in compatible units whenever the formula combines or compares them.
  • Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.

Example: Arc Length

Inputs
  • Radius: 10 cm
