arc length s is given by s = r*theta, where theta is the central angle in radians (not degrees).

Here the diam. is 5 cm, so the radius is 5/2 cm.  60 deg = sqrt(3) / 2.  Thus,

the arc length is    s = (5/2 cm)*sqrt(3) / 2.  This simplifies to (5/4) sqrt(3).

I think the answer will be 12 because 12 times 5 is 60°
