This video tutorial explains how to prove a quadrilateral is a kite using geometric proofs. It covers the necessary conditions, such as showing that one diagonal is the perpendicular bisector of the other, and demonstrates the process through a two-column proof. The video includes example problems to illustrate the concepts and methods used in proving a quadrilateral is a kite.

What is one way to prove that a quadrilateral is a kite?

• Demonstrate that all angles are right angles

• Verify that opposite sides are parallel

In a two-column proof, what is typically listed on the left side?

• Statements

• Diagrams

• Conclusions
