A cheetah's speed is typically calculated by measuring the distance it covers in a set amount of time, such as by using radar guns or cameras. By dividing the recorded distance by the time taken, the cheetah's speed can be determined. The top recorded speed of a cheetah is around 58-64 miles per hour.
