Are the diagonals congruent in a kite?

Well... you tell me!


What would you call a kite with congruent diagonals?

A square.


The diagonals are congruent but the quadrilateral has no right angles is it a parallelogram?

No, a quadrilateral with congruent diagonals but no right angles is not necessarily a parallelogram. In order for a quadrilateral to be classified as a parallelogram, it must have both pairs of opposite sides parallel. The property of having congruent diagonals does not guarantee that the sides are parallel, so the quadrilateral may not be a parallelogram.


Can a kite have four congruent diagonals?

No because a kite is a 4 sided quadrilateral with two diagonals of different lengths that intersect each other at right angles.


Are the diagonals of a kite equal in length?

From Wikipedia: '...a kite, or deltoid, is a quadrilateral with two disjoint pairs of congruent adjacent sides, in contrast to a parallelogram, where the congruent sides are opposite.' In other words, a kite consists of two isosceles triangles joined at the base. Beginning with a particular isosceles triangle, it will always be possible to construct from it one kite that has equal diagonals (given that the kite may be either convex or concave). Hence an infinite number of kites do have equal diagonals, but many do not. A notable example of a kite that does have equal diagonals is a square.


What has congruent diagonals that is not a rectangle?

Any regular polygon. Lots of irregular polygons can also have congruent diagonals, for example a kite. The answer should not be "a square" because it is a rectangle - a special case but a rectangle nevertheless.

What is the definition of the shape kite?

A kite has two pairs of adjacent sides congruent. The diagonals intersect at right angles and bisect one set of angles.

Do kites have congruent diagonals?

No, kites do not have congruent diagonals.

are the diagonals in a trapezoid congruent


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.
