Math question: diameter from a portion?

Hi,

I have a small wooden part with a curve to it and I want to replicate it on the lathe by turning a complete circle so trying to figure out how to take the measure of the slice to get the whole.

To make a simple comparison, if I had a slice from a pie and wanted to figure out the diameter of the pie from just the crust curve of one piece.

Hopefully the brain trust can steer me “straight”.

Thanks,
Rutager
