We are asked to determine the arc length of a circle segment. To do that we will use the following formula:


S=r\theta

Where "S" is the arclength, "r" is the radius and "theta" is the angle. Replacing the given values:


S=(6)(122)*(\pi)/(180)

We multiply by pí over 180 to convert the angle to radians. Solving the operations:


S=12.78

Therfore, the length of CE is 12.78 units
