What is Central Angle?

A central angle is the angle a sector subtends at the centre. It equals the arc length divided by the radius, or twice the inscribed angle on the same arc.

How it works

From an arc we use θ = s/r (converted from radians); from an inscribed angle we double it. Both degrees and radians are shown.
