Oh, honey, a try square is used in woodworking to check if a piece of wood has straight edges or to mark right angles for cutting. It's like the bossy little ruler of the workshop, making sure everything lines up perfectly. So, if you want your project to look sharp and professional, better keep that try square handy.

be sure you are using a tri square and a set or combination square.

It has a thick rectangular stock and a slim blade. The blade is fixed at 90 degrees to the stock, and the three surfaces of the stock are mutually at right angles - hence "tri" (it is "square" in all three dimensions.)

It is used for marking right angles on a work-piece or checking the "squareness" of something, i.e. that an angle is a right angle.

A try square looks like this

and it is used to measure up wood to get it at the right angle.
