Example Question #21 : Kites
What is the length of side
A kite is a geometric shape that has two sets of equivalent adjacent sides. In this kite the two adjacent sides which are congruent are those at the top of the kite and then likewise, the two that are connected at the bottom of the kite.
Thus, must equal .

Example Question #1 : Parallelograms
The length of a parallelogram is cm and the width is cm. One of its diagonals measures cm. Find the length of the other diagonal.
None of the other answers.
The formula for the relationship between diagonals and sides of a parallologram is
,
where represents one diagonal,
represents the other diagonal,
represents a side, and
represents the adjoining side.
So, in this problem, substitute the known values and solve for the missing diagonal.
So, the missing diagonal is cm.
