Answer:

10\pi\ cm or 31.4\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the circumference of the circle

The circumference of a circle is equal to

C=2\pi r

we have

r=15\ cm

substitute

C=2\pi (15)

C=30\pi\ cm

step 2

Remember that the circumference of the circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

so

using proportion

Find the length of an arc by a central angle of 120 degrees

\frac{30\pi}{360^o}=\frac{x}{120^o}\\\\x=30\pi(120^o)/360^o\\\\x= 10\pi\ cm

The exact value of the length of the arc is 10\pi\ cm

assume

\pi=3.14

10(3.14)=31.4\ cm ---> approximate value
