AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a parabola and its tangent line. The slope of the tangent line is determined by a parameter, and as the parameter changes, the tangent line moves accordingly. The relationship between points on the parabola, the tangent line equation, and the slope parameter is dynamic, suitable for learning about derivatives and tangent lines.
