How is a kite and a rectangle similar and different?

Answer 1

• Rectangle and kite consecutive or adjacent angles are supplementary.

• Rectangle and kite interior angle sum is 360 degree

• Both rectangle and kite have at least one pair of opposite congruent side.

• Both Rectangle and kite have four side, angle and vertex.

difference

• Rectangle have opposite pairs are congruent but kite have consecutive congruent sides.

• The diagonal of kite is perpendicular to each other but rectangle is not perpendicular.

• The diagonal of rectangle bisect each other but the diagonal of kite do not bisect each other.

• Kite has one pair of opposite angle that are congruent but rectangle have two pairs of opposite congruent angles.

Answer 2

Both are quadrilaterals.

Both have two pairs of side of equal length. In a kite they are adjacent sides, in a rectangle they are opposite.

A kite has one pair of equal angles, all of a rectangle's angles are equal.

In a kite, one diagonals bisects the other, in a rectangle both do.
