AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a horizontal and a vertical line intersecting at the origin in a squared notebook. Connect the origin to a point on the horizontal line. Draw a line segment from the intersection point to the midpoint of this segment. Create a circle with the point on the horizontal line as the center and the midpoint as the radius. The circle intersects the horizontal line at two points. Connect the midpoint to one of these points, then draw all parallel lines to this segment, forming a curve that reveals a geometric puzzle.
