AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Construct a 3D cylinder with its base circle on the horizontal plane, centered at a point on the x-axis. Mark the intersections of the base circle with the x-axis. Translate the center and the circle vertically to form the top ellipse and the side rectangle. Connect corresponding points on the top and bottom to show the lateral edges. Add auxiliary circles, segments, and an angle to illustrate rotation, translation, and reflection relationships. Finally, draw the cylinder's axis and several auxiliary lines to highlight the geometric and calculus concepts.
