AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a graph of an infinite series, including a circle with a radius of 1 centered at the origin. Use a sequence to generate a series of fractions starting from 1/2, where each fraction is half of the previous one. These fractions represent the shaded parts of the circle, with each sector's area equal to twice the corresponding fraction of the circle's circumference. Finally, display the proportion of the circle's central angle that is shaded and unshaded.
