Flat Pattern a round rod

I need to be able to create a flat pattern of a 3/4" rod that is bent @ 90deg and I am at a loss as how to do it, if possible.

What I usually do is to make it in sheet metal with a contour flange, and then use that on my drawing (or to get the unfold length). Thickness = diamter. I don't use fillets or anything else.
