AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a triangle ABC with points A, B, and C on the unit circle, and B, C, A in that order on the circumference. Construct the three angles α, β, and γ of triangle ABC, and point O as the circle's center. Connect the circle's center O to the midpoints of triangle ABC's sides to form auxiliary line segments.
