AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a parabola and related geometric elements. Start by drawing the parabola, then mark points A and B on the parabola. Draw the tangent at point B, and find its intersection with the parabola at point C. Draw a line perpendicular to the tangent at C, and find its intersection with the parabola at points D and H. Measure angle DCH and label it as α. Next, draw the tangent at point C, and find its intersection with the perpendicular line at points F and G. Measure angle FGE and label it as β. Finally, draw line segment FG.
