arc(x, y, radius, startAngle, endAngle, anticlockwise)

This method has the following parameters −

• x and y are coordinates of the circle’s center.
• Radius is the circle radius
• StartAngle and EndAngle define the start and endpoints of the arc in radians. Starting and closing angles are measured from the horizontal i.e. x-axis
• Anticlockwise is the Boolean value which when true draws arc anticlockwise otherwise in a clockwise direction.
