Polygon(A, B, C) → poly1, c, a, bDilate(A, k, D) → A'Dilate(B, k, D) → B'Dilate(C, k, D) → C'Polygon(A', B', C') → poly1', c', a', b'
AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a triangle and then use three sliders to control the scaling ratios for dilating the triangle's three vertices, obtaining three new points. Connect these new points to form a new triangle, demonstrating the generation of a Floyd triangle pattern through dilation transformations and showcasing the application of similarity and trigonometric functions.
