Trapezoids and Kite Exit Ticket

Front

What is a trapezoid?

Back

A trapezoid is a four-sided figure (quadrilateral) with at least one pair of parallel sides.

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 angles in a kite?

Back

In a kite, one pair of opposite angles are congruent, while the other pair is not necessarily congruent.

Front

What is the relationship between the diagonals of a kite?

Back

The diagonals of a kite are perpendicular to each other.

Front

How do you find the value of x in a kite using its properties?

Back

You can use the properties of the kite, such as the lengths of the sides and the angles, to set up equations and solve for x.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a trapezoid?

Back

The area of a trapezoid can be calculated using the formula: Area = (1/2) * (b1 + b2) * h, where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the two parallel sides and h is the height.

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a trapezoid?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of any quadrilateral, including a trapezoid, is 360 degrees.

Front

How can you determine if a quadrilateral is a kite?

Back

A quadrilateral is a kite if it has two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal in length.

Front

What is the significance of the diagonals in a trapezoid?

Back

In a trapezoid, the diagonals are not necessarily equal, but they can provide information about the angles and sides of the trapezoid.

Front

What is the relationship between the angles of a trapezoid?

Back

In a trapezoid, the angles adjacent to each base are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees.
