\begin{gathered} Length\text{ of AB} \\ \text{length = r}\cdot\theta \\ r=20\operatorname{cm} \\ \theta=120,but\text{ it must be in radians} \\ \theta\text{radians }=120\cdot(\pi)/(180) \\ \\ \theta\text{radians }=(2\pi)/(3) \\ \\ \text{length =(20)}\cdot((2\pi)/(3)) \\ \\ \text{length}=\text{ 41.88}\approx42 \\ The\text{ length of the arc AB is 42cm} \end{gathered}
