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.


Does a kite always has one pair of parallel sides?

a kite does not have parallel sides . It also has 2 pair of sides which are of equal length which are adjacent to each other (not opposite each other - such a s in a parallelogram)

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.
