We will discuss the border-bottom-left-radius property below, exploring examples of how to use this property in CSS.

Let's look at a CSS border-bottom-left-radius example where we provide a fixed value.

div { border-bottom-left-radius: 2px; border-bottom-style: solid; }

In this CSS border-bottom-left-radius example, we have defined rounded corners of 2px on the left side of the bottom border for the <div> tag. Be sure to apply a border-bottom-style so that the border appears.

Next, we'll look at a CSS border-bottom-left-radius example where we provide a percentage value.

In this CSS border-bottom-left-radius example, we have defined rounded corners of 5% to the left side of the bottom border and 10% to the right side of the bottom border. As you can see, the corners of the bottom border can be completely different which can add a unique visual effect to your web page.
