Do you want to draw a square box on your slide, and none of the options within the Shapes gallery are called “Box” or “Square”? Yes, there’s a Rectangle option but the shapes that are drawn using this option almost never have the same width and height. The solution may be to manually resize the Rectangle so that it has the equal proportions of a Square but that again is a long process. Don’t you want something easier and quicker? The short answer is yes, you can easily draw a perfect square in PowerPoint.
