AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a triangle and a circle with one vertex as the center and a radius of 3.605551275463989. Draw a vector from a point on the circle to another vertex of the triangle, then translate the triangle along the vector to create a new triangle. Finally, draw all points and the two triangles.
