AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Create a diagram illustrating eigenvalues and eigenvectors under matrix transformations. Start by drawing the origin and two vectors A and B, then generate a 10x2 random matrix and apply it to create a new vector sequence. Next, find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the matrix, represent the transformed image using the eigenvectors, and label the eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
