Kites & Polygons

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 property of angles in a kite?

Back

The angles between the unequal sides are equal, and the diagonals intersect at right angles.

Front

How do you find the length of a diagonal in a kite?

Back

Use the Pythagorean theorem or properties of triangles formed by the diagonals.

Front

What is the sum of interior angles in a polygon?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is (n-2) × 180 degrees.

Front

What are the characteristics of a polygon?

Back

A polygon is a closed figure with straight sides, and it can be classified as regular (all sides and angles are equal) or irregular.

Front

What is the difference between interior and exterior angles?

Back

Interior angles are formed inside the polygon, while exterior angles are formed outside the polygon when a side is extended.

Front

If a kite has one diagonal measuring 10 cm, what can be said about the other diagonal?

Back

The other diagonal can be found using the properties of kites, but its length is not directly determined without additional information.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the area of a kite?

Back

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

Front

How do you determine if a quadrilateral is a kite?

Back

Check if it has two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal in length.

Front

What is the relationship between the diagonals of a kite?

Back

The diagonals of a kite intersect at right angles and one diagonal bisects the other.
