squares,rectangles,regular pentagons

yes


Do the diagonals of a quadrilateral kite separate the kite into four congruent triangles?

Not necessarly. If the sum of two of the sides congruent to each other are greater than that of the sides opposite them, then no. If however the kite forms a rombus ot square, the diagnoles will form four congruent triangles with the base of both being the line of symmetry.


What quadrilateral do form diagonals a 30 angle?

Any quadrilateral other than a square or kite could have diagonals meeting at 30 degrees.


Is a kite a trapezoid?

No but they are both quadrilaterals.


Which shapes have more than two diagonals?

Is a kite shape and a diamond the same thing?

No, a diamond is a kite with all sides equal like the diamonds on a standard pack of playing cards. the usual kite shape is what you get if you draw around the crosses you see at church. The top point is blunter than the bottom point which is longer and thinner.


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.


What quadrilateral shape has more than one obtuse angle and has no parallel sides?

A general quadrilateral or a kite.


Does a rhombus have parallel sides and equal diagonals?

Opposite sides are equal and parallel but diagonals are only equal in certain specific circumstances eg when all angles are equal, which makes it a square rather than a rhombus.
