AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a pyramid inside a cube with its apex at the center of the cube's diagonal and base on one of its faces. Start by constructing the cube's diagonal and finding its midpoint. Use this midpoint to form the pyramid's sides, ensuring they are perpendicular to the base. The base of the pyramid should be a quadrilateral formed by four cube vertices and one midpoint. Connect the base vertices to the apex to complete the pyramid. Label all edges and vertices, and indicate the angles between the pyramid's sides and base.
