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:

Does a kite have parallel line?

Kites have two pair of adjacent sides that are congruent. The opposite sides are not parallel.


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.


Which quadrilaterals do not always have two pairs of parallel sides?

Kites and trapzuims.


What are the different typews of quadinates?

There are three main types of quadrilaterals: parallelograms, trapezoids, and kites. Parallelograms have opposite sides parallel and equal in length. Trapezoids have one pair of parallel sides. Kites have two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal in length.


Are at least two sides of a kite parallel?

I don't believe so. A kite has 2 sets of adjacent sides that are the same length, but I don't think that kites have parallel sides.


All trapezoids are kites?

Not all trapezoids are kites. A trapezoid is a 4-sided figure with a pair of parallel sides, so any item, not just kites, can manifest this shape.


Kites have two pairs of congruent sides?

yes, but the sides that are congruent are also adjacent. That is, they are next to each other. Not like in a rectangle where the congruent sides are parallel.


How many parallel lines does a quadrilateral have?

A quadrilateral is any figure with 4 sides. ("quad" = 4, "latus" = side). It doesn't have to have any parallel lines. If it happens to have two sides that are parallel, then it's a trapezoid. If it happens to have two pairs of parallel sides, then it's a parallelogram. Common parallelograms are rectangles, squares, and kites.


Has 4 sides and 4 angels?

Squares, rectangles, parallelograms, rhombuses, and kites (literally the shape of a kite, where two sides are equal in length and the other two sides are equal in length; however, unlike a parellogram or rhombus, they are not parallel)


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.


Does rhombus and kite have parallel lines?

Yes, they do have parallel lines. * * * * * Only rhombuses do, kites do not.


How many pairs of parallel sides does a kite have?

Kites have no parallel sides.It can have either 2 parallel sides, or none at all.Well, the definition of paralell is that two lines that can run along each other and not run into each other. So if you look at a kite as you see it in cartoons, it would have no parallel lines because the the Bottom Lines hit each other and so do the top. The answer is no
