What are the steps for using a compass and straightedge to construct a square? drag and drop the steps in order from start to finish. use a straightedge to draw line a and label a point on the line as point p. without changing the compass width, place the compass point on point s and draw an arc in the interior of ∠spt . use the straightedge to draw qs¯¯¯¯¯ and qt¯¯¯¯¯. construct a line perpendicular to line a through point p. label a point on this line as point r. with the compass open to the desired side length of the square, place the compass point on point p and draw an arc on line a and an arc on pr←→ . label the points of intersection as points s and t. keeping the same compass width, place the compass on point t and draw an arc in the interior of ∠spt to intersect the previously drawn arc. label the point of intersection as point q.
