AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a triangle and show its perimeter and sum of interior angles. Start by constructing the triangle, then pick two points on one side and measure two exterior angles. Rotate one vertex around another to create rotated sides, draw perpendiculars, and find new intersections and segments. Next, locate midpoints of all sides, connect them to form inner polylines. Then rotate these midpoints and vertices to generate two sets of rotated polylines, and measure related angles. Finally, pick two points on one side, draw a segment, and attempt to construct several intersection points (which may coincide or not exist).
