The arc.centroid() function is used to compute the midpoint of the centerline of the arc. The midpoint that is generated is calculated using (startAngle+endAngle)/2 and (innerRadius+outerRadius)/2.

Syntax:

arc.centroid(arguments);

Parameters: This function accepts a single parameter as mentioned above and described below.

  • arguments: These are the arbitrary arguments.

Return Values: This function return an array containing the points.

Example 1:

</head
  
<body>
    <script
  
        // Creating an arc
        var arc = d3.arc()
            .innerRadius(40)
            .outerRadius(45)
            .startAngle(10)
            .endAngle(8);
  
        // arc.centroid function 
        console.log(arc.centroid());
    </script
</body>
