# Break tag in HTML

In HTML, the `<br>` tag is used to insert a line break. The `<br>` tag is an empty element, which means that it does not have a closing tag and does not contain any content.

Here is an example of how to use a break tag in an HTML document

```plaintext
<p>This is a paragraph.<br>
It has multiple lines.<br>
Each line is separated by a line break.</p>
```

The output of the break tag

```plaintext
This is a paragraph.
It has multiple lines.
Each line is separated by a line break.
```
