Kites and Trapezoids

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 is the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral?

Back

360 degrees.

Front

What is the property 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 a trapezoid?

Back

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides.

Front

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

Back

360 degrees.

Front

If one angle of a trapezoid is 70 degrees, what is the sum of the other three angles?

Back

290 degrees.

Front

What is the relationship between the bases of an isosceles trapezoid?

Back

The legs of an isosceles trapezoid are equal in length, and the angles adjacent to each base are equal.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a trapezoid?

Back

Area = (1/2) * (Base1 + Base2) * Height.

Front

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

Back

Area = (1/2) * (10 + 6) * 4 = 32 cm².
