The anchor tag <a> is used to access HTML links. A hand-like symbol appears when the mouse cursor is used on the text on which the anchor tag <a> is used, and as soon as we click on that text, we reach that particular blog or article.

HTML links are also define with the between <a> and </a> tags.

Syntax:- <a href="URL"> link text </a>

For Example:-

HTML images are defined in the img tag (<img>). Images are used in the code of html to make any written test or paragraph easy to understand and at the same time your web page also looks attractive.
