More water on TOP of you.
For the classical kite shape, only one. From top centre to bottom centre.
delta kite, diamond kite, and box kite. There are also more kinds!
what can be more obvious
A traditional kite shape (a point at the top, then widest about 1/3 of the way down, then tapering to another point at the bottom) has one, two or three obtuse (>90 degree) angles. The two angles at the widest point, about 1/3 of the way from the top, are generally obtuse, but don't have to be. The bottom angle is almost never obtuse. The top angle is sometimes obtuse. So if the top angle is obtuse but the side angles are not, a kite shape has one obtuse angle. If the top angle is not, but the side angles are, it has two obtuse angles. If the top and side angles are obtuse it has three.
It becomes airborne when the air pressure on the top of the kite becomes less than the pressure on the bottom. A kite acts somewhat like a wing on an airplane. The bottom of the wing is flat and the top is slightly rounded or curved causing the air pressure to be greater on the bottom creating lift. For this to happen the plane must reach a certain speed. The same holds true for a kite.
A kite acts as an airfoil - that's how it flys. (Faster flow over the top = lower pressure, etc).
The lifting force of all kites is produced by deflecting the air downward, the resulting change in momentum producing an upward force. The reason for this is that the air traveling over the top of the curved surface of the kite is going faster than the air passing underneath. Fast-moving air creates less pressure; this means there is more pressure underneath the kite, and this helps to force it upwards. Think of the kite as a sail boat, catching the air. The air tries to push the kite along like the sail boat. But the string the flyer holds keeps the kite tethered. Since the kite cannot go with the wind flow and the kite is tilted so that the air is deflected downward, the kite has no where to go but up. Both the lift-to-drag ratio and the stability of the kite are functions of the length of cable. The more cable released, the more drag created.
In an air flow the pressure above the kite is lower and the pressure under the kite is greater; as a result the kite ascend to lower pressures.

You take your kite to the top of the mountain and when you have the kite in your "hand" you click the pole and the you have it!
More water on TOP of you.
The top and bottom of a kite will never be equal (unless it is a square)but the left and right angles of the kite will be.
It decreases. Air pressure is simply the pressure of all the other air on top of it. As you increase in elevation, there is less air on top of you. Therefore, the air pressure is less. As your altitude decreases, there is more air on top of you, therefore, the air pressure increases. Same with water. As you descend, water pressure increases. More on top of you.
yes a kite's adjacent angles on the top and bottom are congruent.
They can both fly
