The canvas arcTo() Method is used to create an arc/curve between two tangents on the canvas.This method defines an arc in the extension of a straight line or another figure. This method is generally used to create rounded corners. Syntax:
context.arcTo( x1, y1, x2, y2, r );
Parameters:
  • x1: This parameter specifies the x-coordinate of the first tangent.
  • y1: This parameter specifies the y-coordinate of the first tangent.
  • x2: This parameter specifies the x-coordinate of the second tangent.
  • y2: This parameter specifies the y-coordinate of the second tangent.
  • r: This parameter specifies the radius of the arc.
