Solution 1:

You need to inject DatePipe in your component, as

constructor( private datePipe: DatePipe){}

const formattedDate = this.datePipe.transformer(dateValue, 'build_in_date_format')

there are many build in formats, refer to the official documentation https://angular.io/api/common/DatePipe
