How is a kite different than a square?
A kite has two pairs of sides with the same length, where each pair is connected by a corner. For example, a quadrilateral with sides 4-4-5-5 would be a kite. A rhombus is a special kind of kite, with all sides equal. And a square is a special kind of rhombus with four right angles. So every square is a kite, but not every kite is a square.
What is the special name of a kite?
A quadrilateral
What shape has diagonals cross at right angles what is the shape called?
A kite, a rhombus (special case of a kite), a square (a special case of rhombus).
What special quadrilateral has diagonals that bisect each other but no right angles?
It is a rhombus or a kite
Are all sides equal on a kite?
NO!!! If all four sides where equal , then you would have a 'Rhombus'. A Kite shape has four sides, two adjacent sides are of equal length.
In convex kite what special kind of a quadlilateral appear?
A dart

What triangles will form a kite?
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.

What shape has diagonals cross at right angles what is the shape called?
A kite, a rhombus (special case of a kite), a square (a special case of rhombus).
What kind of figure is a kite?
A quadrilateral.
What is a quadrilateral with equal diagonals and no right angles?
A Rhombus * * * * * WRONG! A rhombus does not have equal diagonals. If it did it would be a square! The shape is a special case of a kite.
Is kite a common name or proper name?
It's common, because kite is not something special, something that is unique. There are millions of kites out there.
Does a kite have a point symmetry?
It depend on what kind of kite you have. Two points are symmetric with respect to a point iff it is the midpoint of the line segment joining them. So if you have like a dragon kite, then probably not, but if you have a traditional dizmond kite, then yes.
What is a kind of symmetry?
Examples; square, kite etc
What are the names of special quadrilaterals?
Parallelogram, rectangle, rhombus, trapezium, square, kite.
Would a parallelogram and a kite be congruent?
No, except in the special case where each was a square.
