Help with how to draw simple rings (newbie)

Can anyone let me know how to draw simple rings in the attached images? I have watched all of the Xara help video tutorials and have scoured YouTube and Google and can't do this SIMPLE task! AHHHH! Any help is appreciated!

1. Draw Circles
2. for the Circle to cut: Convert Line a to Shape
3. Select both Objects, Combine Shape - Slice Shapes
4. Done

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,
