Juergen is correct, but if you want to have rounded ends to the arcs,
you will need to do it this way (attached).

Siri,
Welcome to TalkGraphics.
It looks like Juergen and Bob beat me to it. I actually used a combination of each of their methods to produce a similar effect although I used a square converted to a shape and rotated 45° to cut my circle(s). Their posts should be enough to get you started.
Give it a try,
