Well, sweetheart, a kite and a rectangle both have four sides. But here's the kicker - a kite has two pairs of adjacent sides that are equal in length, while a rectangle has all four sides equal. So, they both may be four-sided figures, but they ain't exactly twins, if you catch my drift.

How is a kite and a rectangle similar and different?
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.
Can a rectangle and a kite be congruent?
Yes
Is a kite a regular shape?
A kite is only a regular shape if it is also a square or rectangle.
Name a parallelogram that is not a square or rectangle?
kite
What do all the angles of a kite equal?
360 degrees, assuming the kite is a rectangle. Regardless, if it has 4 corners, totaling all those up would bring you to 360. if the kite is a triangle, then its angles would total to 180 degrees. These are the two most common types of kites.
What does a rhombus a kite and rectangle have in common?
They all have the square shape.
Is a kite always a rectangle?
no, a kite can be a rombus

Quadrilateral that is not a rectangle?
A quadrilateral that is not a rectangle is a kite. A quadrilateral is a figure that has four straight sides. A rectangle has opposites sides that are parallel and of equal measurement. However, a kite is a quadrilateral by definition but is unlike a rectangle because it has pairs of equal adjacent sides.
