AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a plane in 3D space defined by a point and two direction vectors. Start with a 3D coordinate system showing the origin and axes. From the origin, draw three unit vectors along the x, y, and z axes. Then choose a point A in space, and from A draw two non-parallel direction vectors. Use sliders to scale these two vectors, creating two moving points on the plane. Connect these points with A to form a parallelogram, and draw a vector from the origin to a point on this parallelogram, representing the parametric equation of the plane. Add input boxes on the axes to adjust the components of the direction vectors.
