The ratio of the angle to 360 is the ratio of the length of the arc to the entire circle.
The entire circle has a circumference of 2pir, which is 2 * pi * 3/pi = 6. 120/360 is the ratio, which is 1/3. 6*1/3 = 2.

Answer: 1 cm

Explanation:

To find the length of arc, multiply the fraction of the circle to the Circumference

Looks like:


(part of circle)/(whole circle) (2\pi r)

r=3/
\pi

length =
(120)/(360) (2\pi)(3)/(\pi ) pi's cancel, now reduce

= 2 cm
