A kite is a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides that are congruent. In terms of triangles, a kite can be formed by two congruent right triangles sharing a hypotenuse, or by two congruent isosceles triangles sharing a base. Additionally, a kite can also be formed by combining two congruent scalene triangles with a shared side.

Do the diagonals of a quadrilateral kite separate the kite into four congruent triangles?

Not necessarly. If the sum of two of the sides congruent to each other are greater than that of the sides opposite them, then no. If however the kite forms a rombus ot square, the diagnoles will form four congruent triangles with the base of both being the line of symmetry.


How many triangles are in a kite?

Well, that depends on the Kite. You can divide it in a number of ways. But on a standard kite, there's 4.


Can a kite be divided into two isosceles triangles?

Yes


What quadrilateral does it make if you put 2 right triangles together?

Well, darling, when you put 2 right triangles together, you get a rectangle! It's like magic, but not really. So, next time you see two right triangles hanging out, just remember they're probably plotting to become a rectangle.


Draw two triangles with a common hypotenuse do the legs form a rectangle?

Not always. You could form a kite. That means that the two adjacent sides would be congruent, not the two opposite sides.

Why angles between unequal sides of kite are equal?

We think of a kite shaping having 2 equal lines forming an inverted V, and 2 shorter equal lines which link from each side of the V to the bottom of the kite. If you draw a straight line from the top of the kite to the bottom you will form 2 congruent (same size and shape) triangles . Since the triangles are congruent, meaning copies of each other it follows that the angles between the unequal sides are themselves equal.
