yes kites have four sides
*****************************************************************
Answer 2:
A traditional diamond-shaped kite has 6 sides (don't forget the front side and the back side). But when drawn as a geometric figure a diamond kite has 4 sides.
There are many other shapes for kites, from pentagonal and polygonal kites, delta kites, figural kites (in the shapes of fish, birds, dragons, etc.), box kites, and more, so the answer to your question would depend on the type of kite.
Perhaps a more challenging question would be how to find the area of a kite, given that the edges (sides) on most kites are not of equal length.

Why are kites not rhombuses?
All four sides of a kite need not be the same length.
Is a kite a quadrilatral?
Many kites have four sides, like quadrilaterals. However, quadrilaterals are two-dimensional figures; kites are three-dimensional.
What are the parallel sides of a kite?
Among the simple kites, the box kites are shaped like open boxes. There are four parallel poles to shape the sides and four internal struts arranged in parallel pairs. The cloth sides of the kites are usually split into atop and bottom section. Each set would have two parallel sides.
What is the difference between a kite and a diamond?
A kite is a quadrilateral with two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal in length, while a diamond is a rhombus where all four sides are equal in length. In other words, all diamonds are kites, but not all kites are diamonds.
Name four types of quadrilaterals?
trapeziums,kites,rectangles,parallelogramsHere are a few that I could think of:(quadrilateral: polygon with four sides)parallelogram: quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides paralleltrapezoid: quadrilateral with just one pair of opposite sides parallelrectangle: parallelogram with four right anglesrhombus: parallelogram with four congruent sidessquare: parallelogram with four right angles and four congruent sides
Do all kites have congruent opposite sides?
No
Why is it important for kites to have symmetry?
Kites must have symmetry so that they will fly straight. When the kite's sides are symmetrical, the force of the wind acts equally on both sides.
Do kites have congruent consective sides?
2 pairs of consecutive congruent sides
What polygon is a kite?
Honestly, it would depend on the type of kite, but if you are referring to the normal Diamond shaped kites, then it would be a Quadrilateral because it has four sides.
What shape has only 4 sides?
A four sided figure is a quadrilateral. There are several specific quadrilaterals, squares, rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, rhomboids, and kites.
Can kites be quadrilateral?
The geometric shape, known as a kite, must be a quadrilateral.
Do kites have parallel sides?
Yes, kites do have parallel lines. at least the classic, diamond- shaped ones do. It is not the two perpendicular sticks in the middle, but rather the sides. In this diagram, it shows how they are parallel:
