AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw two similar triangles ABC and DEF. Start by rotating point J around point A to get J'. Then, construct triangle ABC and draw rays AB and AC. Next, draw rays AD and AE, which intersect rays J' and J at points F and E, respectively, forming triangle DEF. Finally, measure and compare the corresponding angles and side lengths of the two triangles to observe their proportional relationships.
