Drawing An Arc

Can just use the Arc tool but if you need to start with a circle… Use the 'Direct Selection Tool' (white arrow) to select unwanted nodes on the circle and then press backspace to delete that node and line segment (de-select and then select again if it doesn't work). When you get the bit that you want left select the object using the normal selection tool. Then using the 'Reshape Tool' (in the scale tool extra tools) you can add additional nodes to the object. Add a node where you want each end of the arc and then you can deselect the rest of the line using the backspace method.
