Frequently asked questions
What does Inscribed Circle Calculator do?
Inradius r = K/s, incentre, tangent points and incircle of a triangle, from three sides or three vertices, with the figure drawn.
When would I actually use this?
Homework and site work alike: how much paint a wall takes, how much water a tank holds, whether a corner is square — and, on the coordinate side, the slope between two points, the distance across a plan, the midpoint of a span.
What is the most common mistake?
Mixing units inside one shape. Entering a length in centimetres and a width in metres gives an area wrong by a factor of a hundred, and the result looks perfectly plausible.
How is Inscribed Circle Calculator different from Circumscribed Circle Calculator?
They sit next to each other but answer different questions: Circumscribed Circle Calculator is the one to open when you need it to circumradius R = abc/4K, circumcentre and circumcircle of a triangle, from three sides or three vertices, with the figure drawn. Pick whichever matches what you're starting from — both are free.
Is there a tool for the next step?
Great Circle Distance Calculator is the closest one after this: Great-circle distance between two latitude/longitude points by the haversine formula, with initial and final bearing, the midpoint and a globe view.
What else is worth having open alongside it?
Circle calculator and Circle sector area calculator — they come up in the same task often enough to be worth a second tab.
Where do the figures come from?
The formulas are the classical ones and the results are exact to the precision shown — geometry does not change with the year or the country, so nothing here needs updating.
