    How to find the radius of a circle by knowing two points and its arc length

    I did so. Since the process must be repeated, that will be time consuming but as you said and I thought, there seems to be no other way. Thank you for the answer.

    How to find the radius of a circle by knowing two points and its arc length

    Yes, the coordinates of the two points and the length of the arc between them are known. The solution that I get contains trigonometric identities. I can write it if you are curious, but what I need is an equation that is solvable by elementary methods.

    How to find the radius of a circle by knowing two points and its arc length

    Thank you for the reply but as you did not use the length of the arc it is impossible to reach a solution by your way. Actually there are number of mistakes but I am sure you can notice them at a second glance. Again thank you for your effort. Unfortunately, yes they are arbitrary.

    How to find the radius of a circle by knowing two points and its arc length

    How can I find the radius of a circle by knowing two points and its arc length? Do I have to use a numerical method to solve for a trigonometric equation or is there any algebraic or geometric method?
