AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a triangle with a base segment. From one endpoint of the base, draw a ray and pick a point on it as the third vertex, connecting it to both base endpoints. Inside the triangle, draw angle bisectors from two vertices and mark their intersections with opposite sides. Using these intersection points as centers, draw small circles with radii proportional to a fraction of the triangle's side lengths. These circles intersect the angle bisectors and sides, creating multiple points. Connect these points to form new segments and smaller triangles. Also, at vertices, draw angle bisectors and rotate relevant points to illustrate angle bisector properties. The final figure includes triangles, circles, rays, segments, and angle bisectors, demonstrating geometric construction.
