AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a dynamic multiplication wheel centered on a common center, featuring three concentric circles with radii of one, two, and three-and-a-half units. Pick a point on the innermost circle, rotate it around the center by a random integer multiple of an angle, and connect the center to this rotated point, intersecting the innermost circle at another point. Rotate both points around the center in ten equal angular steps to create two sets of points on the circle. Connect corresponding points from the two sets with ten line segments, and place multiplication labels near their midpoints. Additionally, take a point on the middle circle, rotate it similarly, and from the center draw ten rays to these rotated points, intersecting the middle circle. Connect each ray endpoint to its intersection point, and label these with product values. The final figure is a symmetric radial pattern illustrating multiplication and trigonometric relationships.
