Are opposite sides of a kite parallel?
No they are not. A kite is not a parallelogram.
A quadrilateral having both diagonals congruent is a?
If both pairs of opposite sides are parallel: A Rectangle, or a Square. If exactly one pair of opposite sides are parallel: An Isosceles Trapezoid. If it does not have parallel sides and one diagonal is the perpendicular bisector of the other: A Kite It is also possible that it does not have any parallel sides and neither diagonal is the perpendicular bisector of the other: A quadrilateral
Is a parallelogram a kite?
No. A kite is a quadrilateral that has two pairs of adjacent equal sides (upper/lower).In a parallelogram, the opposite sides are equal in length. A kite can become a parallelogram in the degenerate case of a rhombus, where the upper and lower sides are equal. This also applies to square kites.No but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals
Is a rhombus always a kite?
A rhombus is never a kite.A rhombus is a parallelogram with all its sides equal in length. Opposite angles are therefore equal and the rhombus is symmetrical about each of its diagonals.A kite is a quadrilateral having two pairs of adjacent sides equal in length. Only one pair of opposite angles is equal and the kite is symmetrical about the line that bisects the unequal opposite angles. A kite does not have any parallel sides.
What is the different between a kite and a parallelogram?
Both shapes have 4 sides, two pairs equal in length. In a parallelogram the equal length sides are opposite each other. In a kite the equal length sides are adjacent.
