AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a hyperbola's locus inside a triangle. Start by sketching the three sides of the triangle, then take a point on one side, draw a perpendicular line, and find the intersection point. Connect these points and intersections to form segments and a smaller triangle. Locate the midpoint of a segment, and finally, draw a locus centered at one point passing through another to create the hyperbola's path.
