AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw line segment AB and change its length by dragging points A and B. Find the midpoint M and length of AB. Draw the perpendicular bisector of AB and intersect it with a vertical line from point B and another vertical line from point A to find point C. Connect points B and C, and A and C. Measure the angle BCA and the lengths of segments AB, BC, and CA.
