Kites

Front

What is a kite in geometry?

Back

A kite is a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides that are equal in length.

Front

What are the properties of the diagonals of a kite?

Back

The diagonals of a kite are perpendicular to each other.

Front

How many pairs of congruent angles does a kite have?

Back

A kite has one pair of congruent angles.

Front

What is the relationship between the sides of a kite?

Back

A kite has two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal in length.

Front

If a kite has angles of 118 degrees, what are the measures of the other two angles?

Back

The other two angles are also 118 degrees, as the opposite angles in a kite are congruent.

Front

What is the formula to find the area of a kite?

Back

Area = (d1 * d2) / 2, where d1 and d2 are the lengths of the diagonals.

Front

What does it mean for a kite to have no parallel sides?

Back

It means that none of the sides of the kite are parallel to each other.

Front

If one diagonal of a kite is 10 cm and the other is 8 cm, what is the area of the kite?

Back

Area = (10 * 8) / 2 = 40 cm².

Front

What is the significance of congruent sides in a kite?

Back

Congruent sides help to identify the shape as a kite and determine its properties.

Front

Can a kite have right angles?

Back

Yes, a kite can have right angles, but it is not a requirement.
