Answer:

  5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The given arcs have the ratio ...

  BRA : BSA = (3/2) : 1 = 3 : 2

Then BRA is 3/(3+2) = 0.6 of the total circumference of the circle.

  0.6(2πr) = 6π . . . . . BRA is 6π long

  r = 6π/(1.2π) . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of r

  r = 5 . . . . centimeters
