You could use the clipper tool (X), just do the same shape as the arc, might take abit though!

I would suggest watching this:

Click on Arches.

Hmmmmm....Maybe thats not what your looking for.

Or just make a big brush, turn it into a circle,(32 sides" and then cut it in half

u think the clipper tool should do the trick ,u will have 2 cut it alot 2 get a decent looking curve thought.but y dont u just make it a big square one and hide the rest of it behind the patch?

I haven't worked with arches much, but could you use the invert option and create the opposite of what you have?

Just a thought
