Are all the sides of a kite the same length?
no
Does a kite have all sides the same length?
Yes
How is a kite a rhombus?
A rhombus has four sides that are all the same length ---------------------------------------- but if you are talking about the geometric shape kite - it is not a rhombus. A kite has two adjacent sides of equal length and the other two sides of equal length. Only a square can be a rhombus.
Are all the sides the same length in a kite shape?
No. A kite has two pairs of sides of equal lengths. Opposite sides belong to different pairs.
How is a rhombus different from a kite?
All four sides of a rhombus are the same length.
Why are kites not rhombuses?
All four sides of a kite need not be the same length.
Would a rhombus and a kite be congruent?
If all of the sides of the kite have the same length, and it happens to be the sameas the length of each side of the rhombus, andeach angle of the kite happens to bethe same size as one of the angles of the rhombus, thenthey can be congruent.
Are all sides equal on a kite?
NO!!! If all four sides where equal , then you would have a 'Rhombus'. A Kite shape has four sides, two adjacent sides are of equal length.
A rhombus that is not a kite?
A rhombus and kite are different quadrilaterals. All four sides of a rhombus are of equal length: this is not necessary for a kite.
How is a kite different than a square?
A kite has two pairs of sides with the same length, where each pair is connected by a corner. For example, a quadrilateral with sides 4-4-5-5 would be a kite. A rhombus is a special kind of kite, with all sides equal. And a square is a special kind of rhombus with four right angles. So every square is a kite, but not every kite is a square.
Why rhombus is a kite according to all the books a rhombus is a parallelogram and a parallelogram is not a kite then how can someone say that a rhombus is a kite?
The definitions are a bit looser. A parallelogram is a shape in which the two pairs of opposite sides are parallel to each other. By definition, all rhombuses are parallelograms. A kite is defined as a shape in which two adjacent sides are equal length to each other, and the opposite two adjacent sides are equal length to each other. If all four sides are the same length, then the kite is ALSO a rhombus (and a parellelogram by definition) or a square if the angles are equal too. Because of that, some rhombuses are kites, or diamond, even if other kite-shapes are not parallelograms and some rhombuses are not kites.
Does a hexagon have the same length on all sides?
In general no. A regular hexagon has the same length on all sides. Also, there are other hexagons with the same length on all sides that are not regular.
