AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw the inverse function of the tangent function y=arctan(x) and demonstrate its derivative's geometric interpretation. Start by drawing the intersection point O of the x-axis and y-axis, then find the intersection point A of the function graph with the y-axis, draw the line segment l from O to A, draw circle d with O as the center and l as the radius, find the intersection point D of circle d and the function graph, draw the line segment h from O to D, draw ray i from O, find the intersection point C of ray i and circle d, draw the line segment AC, find the intersection point E of the function graph with the x-axis, calculate angle AOB, draw sector OAB, then draw sector OCD, construct quadrilateral OADC, find the midpoints G and H of line segments OA and OD, rotate H around O by π/5 to get H', draw line segments AE and DE, calculate angles EOA and EOD, finally draw line segments OA and OD.
