AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a complex plane with the origin at the center, horizontal axis as real and vertical as imaginary. From the origin, draw three vectors representing a complex number, another complex number, and their product. Connect the origin to the endpoints of these vectors with three line segments, ensuring the product vector's length equals the product of the two lengths and its angle equals the sum of the two angles. Clearly show the angular relationships among the vectors and label the origin.
