From Wikipedia: '...a kite, or deltoid, is a quadrilateral with two disjoint pairs of congruent adjacent sides, in contrast to a parallelogram, where the congruent sides are opposite.' In other words, a kite consists of two isosceles triangles joined at the base. Beginning with a particular isosceles triangle, it will always be possible to construct from it one kite that has equal diagonals (given that the kite may be either convex or concave). Hence an infinite number of kites do have equal diagonals, but many do not. A notable example of a kite that does have equal diagonals is a square.

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.
Are diagonals in a parallelogram equal in length?
the sides that are parallel of each other are equal. * * * * * True, but that was not the question! In general, the diagonals are not of equal length.
A quadrilateral with equal diagonals and no right angles?
An isosceles trapezoid will have diagonals of equal length but will never contain right angles by definition. A square and rectangle will have diagonals of equal length but will contain 4 right angles. A rhombus and any other parallelogram that does not contain right angles will not have diagonals of equal length.
The diagonals of a square are equal in length?
Yes.
What quadrilateral has perpendicular diagonals that have 2 pairs of equal sides?
A kite fits this description.
Are the diagonals of a kite equal?
No, the diagonals are not equal.
Are the diagonals on a kite equal?
No.
The diagonals of a kite are?
Perpendicular and the one for which each endpoint touches only sides of equal length bisects the other.
Is a triangle a kite?
No. A kite is a quadrilateral (4 sided figure) with two pairs of adjacent sides of equal length; its diagonals are perpendicular. A triangle has 3 sides.
How many diagonals which are equal does a kite have?
None but the diagonals intersect at 90 degrees
What quadrilateral with perpendicular but not equal diagonals?
One answer is a kite.
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.
Are the diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length?
Yes they are equal in length
Which type of quadilateral has diagonals which are not equal?
Parallelogram, trapezoid, rhombus and a kite are some of them Note that a square and a rectangle have diagonals of equal lengths
Are diagonals in a parallelogram equal in length?
the sides that are parallel of each other are equal. * * * * * True, but that was not the question! In general, the diagonals are not of equal length.
If a parallelogram is a rectangle then it's diagonals are what?
Its diagonals are equal in length
Diagonals of equal length?
square
