How do I do a patch request using HttpClient in dotnet core?

Question

I am trying to create a Patch request with theHttpClient in dotnet core. I have found the other methods,

using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
    client.GetAsync("/posts");
    client.PostAsync("/posts", ...);
    client.PutAsync("/posts", ...);
    client.DeleteAsync("/posts");
}

but can't seem to find the Patch option. Is it possible to do a Patch request with the HttpClient? If so, can someone show me an example how to do it?
