I think this would work:

=((m*m)+.25*c*c)/2*m

=((B1)*(B1))+0.25*((B2)*(B2))/2*(B1)

radius = =((A1*A1)+(0.25*B1*B1))/2

Where cell A1 contains height of arc (m)
cell B1 contains distance between points (c)

Can’t help you with the specific formula, but have you checked out the fx (function) part of Excel? There are a lot of formulas (financial, statistical, ect) already created and ready to use. Maybe what you need will be there?

Hope this helped.

If you had a Mac, you wouldn’t have run into this problem. /sarcasm :O)
