AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a unit circle with its center at the origin. Draw a line from the origin intersecting the circle at a point. Form a triangle with the origin and the two intersection points. Draw a perpendicular line from the intersection point to the x-axis. Connect the origin to this intersection point and fill the triangle. Label the lengths of the triangle's sides and the angles, and display these as fractions. Calculate the greatest common divisor of the side lengths, and divide each side length by this value, displaying the results.
