AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a polygon and display its interior angles. Start by drawing the sides of the polygon, then calculate and draw the sides of each interior angle. Next, draw three small circles centered at the vertices of the polygon and find their intersections with the sides. Use these intersection points to draw sectors, each representing an interior angle. Finally, rotate and connect the points of the sectors to form an alternative representation of the angles.
