Example Question #21 : Kites

Kite_series_2

Using the kite shown above, find the length of side 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

A kite is a geometric shape that has two sets of equivalent adjacent sides.

Thus, the length of side .

Since,   must equal .  

Example Question #21 : Kites

Kite_series_2

What is the length of side 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

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 #23 : Kites

A kite has one set of equivalent sides each with a measurement of . Additionally, the kite has a perimeter of  Find the length for one of the other two sides of the kite. 

Possible Answers:

Example Question #331 : Plane Geometry

Kite_series_2

Using the kite shown above, find the length of side 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

A kite is a geometric shape that has two sets of equivalent adjacent sides.

In this particular case the top sides that are connected at the top are congruent and the two sides that are connected at the bottom are congruent.

Thus, side  must equal  inches.
