How to use LENGTHEN command in CAD? How to draw an arc with a specified length?

I was asked the other day about how to draw an arc with a specified length. Well, CAD provides many ways to draw an arc using point, center, and angle. Using arc command will not specify the arc length, but we can use fixed-points, radium and so on to draw an arc with approximate length and use LENGTHEN command to modify the arc length.
