AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a trapezoid ABCD with AD and BC as the bases and AB and CD as the legs. Draw diagonals AC and BD, which intersect at point F. Draw a perpendicular line from F to BD, intersecting BC at point M. Connect point E and M, where E is the midpoint of AB and CD. Draw points I and J as the midpoints of line segments AB and DC, respectively, and connect I and J. Draw the midpoint K of line segment IM, and connect K with I, J, and M. Measure the angles IME and EMJ.
