OpenStudy (anonymous):

when Ɵ = pi/3 I mean.

OpenStudy (ddcamp):

\[Arc\ Length = \theta * r\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So its D?

OpenStudy (ddcamp):

Yup!

I have like 3 more if you could try to help

If it helps you think about it, the 'arc length' of the entire circle is the same as the perimeter, which is 2*π*r. Since there are 2π radians to get around the circle, it makes sense that the arc length would just be angle (in radians) times the radius.
