Crescent Area Calculator — free online calculator.

Formula

Area = π(R² − r²)
  • Calculate the area between two concentric circles from an outer radius and inner radius.
  • 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: Crescent Area

Despite the current page name, the implemented engine calculates an annulus (ring) area, not a general geometric crescent or lune. The outer radius must be at least the inner radius.
