What is the formula for calculating the length of an arc in a circle?

Back

Arc Length = (θ/360) * 2πr, where θ is the central angle in degrees and r is the radius.

What is the relationship between the radius and the arc length?

Back

The arc length is directly proportional to the radius; as the radius increases, the arc length increases.
