AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a line segment with three points marked on it, creating four segments. Find the midpoints of the segment ends, draw a circle centered at each midpoint with a given radius. The circle intersects the segment at two points. Connect these intersection points to the segment endpoints to form two vectors. Display related distances and vectors in input boxes.
