AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw the representation of irrational numbers on a number line. Start by drawing a number line and marking the origin and another point. Draw a perpendicular line from the second point. Create a circle centered at the origin with a radius equal to the distance between the origin and the second point. Connect the intersection of the circle and the perpendicular line to the origin. Then, draw an arc centered at the second point passing through another point on the circle, and another circle centered at the origin passing through the intersection point. Connect the intersection of this circle with the number line to the origin. Finally, draw an arc centered at the foot of the perpendicular passing through another point on the circle.
