Circle Equation Converter

Choose the form you have, enter values, and calculate. The tool converts forms, finds center/radius, and shows key circle measures.

Step-by-step

Enter h, k, and r, then press Calculate to expand into general form and compute circle properties.
Tip: A radius must be non-negative. If r = 0, the “circle” is a single point at the center.

Step-by-step (Complete the Square)

Enter D, E, and F for x² + y² + Dx + Ey + F = 0, then calculate to complete the square and convert to standard form.
Tip: If r² turns out negative, the equation does not represent a real circle (no real radius).
Your history will appear here after you run a few conversions.
