AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a circle with center O and mark a point B1 on the circle. Draw a circle centered at B1 that intersects the original circle at points C1 and D. Connect C1 and D and draw an arc. Mark the intersection of the arc with the circle as point A. Connect B1 and C1 and draw an arc. Mark the intersection of this arc with the circle as point B. Connect D and B1 and draw an arc. Mark the intersection of this arc with the circle as point C. Connect points B and A, and C and A. Connect O to B and O to C. Measure angles ∠BOC and ∠BAC to demonstrate the relationship between central and inscribed angles.
