AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a triangle to demonstrate the relationships between its sides and angles, focusing on the triangle inequality theorem. Start by drawing two line segments as sides, then draw two circles with these segments as radii. The intersection points of the circles determine the third vertex, forming the triangle. Label the three sides and angles, and mark the midpoints of each side. Draw lines from each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side to illustrate the theorem visually.
