At a glance:Arc length s = r·θ with θ in radians; equivalently s = 2πr·(deg/360). Complements central-angle and circle calculators.

Formula

s = r·θ (θ in rad).

s = 2πr·(deg/360).

$$L = r \cdot \theta = 2\pi r \cdot \frac{\theta^\circ}{360^\circ}$$

How to Use

  1. Enter radius and angle.
  2. The tool returns the arc length.

Case Studies

r=5, 90°

s = 2π·5·(90/360) = 2.5π ≈ 7.85.

FAQ

Radians or degrees?

Use s = r·θ with radians; degrees form divides by 360.
