AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a triangular prism by first creating a triangular base at point A, then constructing other points and segments through point A and the base edges to form two parallel triangular bases. Next, construct vertical segments through point A and base edges to connect the two triangular bases, forming the prism's side faces. Finally, translate the base triangle to obtain the other base of the prism.
