AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a right triangle ABC with point C on the perpendicular bisector of AB. Points D, E, F, G, H, and I are midpoints of the sides. Construct a semicircle on the hypotenuse and perpendicular bisectors through the right angle vertex. Use these lines and circles to create four smaller triangles, illustrating the Pythagorean theorem.
