AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw two similar triangles, triangle ABC and triangle DEF, and demonstrate the properties of similar triangles through rotation and translation transformations. First, draw triangle ABC, then use rotation and mirroring to obtain triangle DEF. Next, draw the corresponding sides and angles of triangle DEF to show that corresponding sides are proportional and corresponding angles are equal.
