Area of Trapezoid, Kite, and Rhombus

Front

What is the formula for the area of a trapezoid?

Back

The area of a trapezoid is given by the formula: A = (1/2) * (b1 + b2) * h, where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the two parallel sides and h is the height.

Front

Define a kite in geometry.

Back

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

Front

What is the area formula for a kite?

Back

The area of a kite can be calculated using the formula: A = (1/2) * d1 * d2, where d1 and d2 are the lengths of the diagonals.

Front

What is a rhombus?

Back

A rhombus is a quadrilateral with all four sides of equal length.

Front

How do you find the area of a rhombus?

Back

The area of a rhombus can be found using the formula: A = (1/2) * d1 * d2, where d1 and d2 are the lengths of the diagonals.

Front

What is the relationship between the diagonals of a rhombus?

Back

The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.

Front

What is the height of a trapezoid?

Back

The height of a trapezoid is the perpendicular distance between the two parallel sides.

Front

If the bases of a trapezoid are 10 cm and 6 cm, and the height is 4 cm, what is the area?

Back

A = (1/2) * (10 + 6) * 4 = 32 cm².

Front

What is the difference between a kite and a rhombus?

Back

While both have equal-length sides, a kite has two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal, whereas a rhombus has all four sides equal and its diagonals bisect at right angles.

Front

What is the perimeter of a rhombus with side length 5 cm?

Back

The perimeter of a rhombus is P = 4 * side length, so P = 4 * 5 = 20 cm.
