How do you find both the escape velocity and radius of the event horizon using general relativity? The equation used for both escape velocity and the Schwarzschild radius
v=sqrt(2GM/r) and r=2GM/c^2
does not work.
Pic relate

you can use r = 2GM/c^2

That equation is a product of Newtonian mechanics. It isn't applicable to relativity.

give this a go
v^2 = c^2 * (Rs/R)
I always used the Newtonian one when I was at uni. (Rs is swartzchild radius) You can derive it from the relativistic energy formula as well as the one for radius

I'd also like it point out it is applicable as it was calculated in relevance to Einsteins Field Equations
