Circle Calculator sits in the Calculate group on purpose. It is not Rectangle Calculator (Area, perimeter, and diagonal of a rectangle.) and not Aspect Ratio (Simplify ratios and scale to a target size.). Choose this page when you need Area from radius, diameter, or circumference. If you stretch Circle Calculator into a neighbor’s job, the result will look wrong even though the site chrome looks the same.
