Do kites have four sides?

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.
