In 1882, the task was proven to be impossible, as a
consequence of the Lindemann–Weierstrass theorem which
proves that pi (π) is a transcendental, rather than an
algebraic irrational number; that is, it is not the root of
any polynomial with rational coefficients. It had been known
for some decades before then that if π were
transcendental then the construction would be impossible,
but that π is transcendental was not proven until 1882.
Approximate squaring to any given non-perfect accuracy, in
contrast, is possible in a finite number of steps, since
there are rational numbers arbitrarily close to π.

it is difficult to say whats impossible,
for the dream of yesterday is the hope of today
and the reality of tomorrow
