HOW TO CONSTRUCT THIS TOOL:

Square-

Given segment AB,
Construct a circle centered on point A with radius AB.
Construct a circle centered on point B with radius BA.
Construct perpendicular line m, through point A.
Construct perpendicular line n, through point B.
Label one intersection of circle B, with line n, point C.
Label one intersection of circle A, with line m, point D.
Constuct segments BC, CD,  and DA.
AB=BC=CD=DA
Therefore we have constructed square ABCD
