AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a polygon and calculate its perimeter. Start by creating two rays extending upwards from points, then place points on these rays. Construct two polygons using these points. Next, create several vectors to indicate directions and draw corresponding line segments. Finally, combine these segments to form the boundary of the polygon, labeling the perimeter.
