AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a complex number's cubic root by first rotating point E around point F by 120 degrees to get E', then draw rays a from F to E and b from F to E', next rotate E' around F by 120 degrees to get E'', and draw ray c from F to E''. Finally, calculate the angles α from E to F to E', β from E' to F to E'', and γ from E'' to F to E'.
