Yes, in the figure of a kite one diagonal bisects the other. They do not bisect each other.

What has Diagonal that bisect opposite angles?

A square, a rhombus or s kite would fit the given description


If one diagonal of quadrilateral bisects the other then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram?

No. It could be a kite.


Why do diagonals on a kite bisect each other?

Well, honey, diagonals on a kite bisect each other because a kite is a special kind of quadrilateral where the diagonals are perpendicular. So, when two lines are perpendicular, they create right angles, and right angles mean the diagonals bisect each other. It's like a geometry magic trick, but without the rabbit in the hat.


What are the properties of a kite?

The intersection of the diagonals of a kite form 90 degree (right) angles. This means that they are perpendicular. The longer diagonal of a kite bisects the shorter one. This means that the longer diagonal cuts the shorter one in half. It is a 4 sided quadrilateral Its 4 interior angles add up to 360 degrees It has no parallel sides Its adjacent sides are equal It has 1 pair of opposite angles that are equal It has 2 diagonals that intersect each other at right angles Its perimeter is the sum of its 4 sides Its area formula is: 0.5 times product of its diagonals


The diagonals of a rhombus are 16 cm and 30 cmfind the length of its sides pls show the solution?

Please note that the diagonals cross one another at right angles, and bisect one another. You should draw a diagram to visualize this. From this center point, where the diagonals cross, you have a RIGHT TRIANGLE that involves half of one diagonal, half of the other diagonal, and one of the sides of the rhombus. This lets you use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the length of the side.
