CoachAbsolutely. A square object with strings tied to it can be used as a kite. The sheet styrofoam from a building supply store works fantastic, but it is fairly unstable in flight without lots of controlling strings or tails (something that pulls on the back end to keep it facing in one direction). Box kites are cubes with some faces open, to help channel the wind or create its own internal drag for stability and direction control.

Are opposite angles equal in a kite?
The top and bottom of a kite will never be equal (unless it is a square)but the left and right angles of the kite will be.
Can two opposite angles of a kite be supplementary?
Yes. The opposite angles of a kite can be supplementary if the kite is, more specifically, a square. (90° + 90° = 180°)
Does a kite have any obtuse angles?
Assuming the kite has four sides and is not a square, then yes, it must have obtuse angles.
What is a quadrilateral with diagonals intersect at right angles?
square and rectangle * * * * * No. Square and Kite but NOT rectangle.
Which quadrilaterals have diagonals that are always perpendicular?
rhombus, kite, square
Is a kite is always or never or sometimes square?
A kite is never a square but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals
If a quadrilateral is a square then it is not a kite?
A kite is a quadrilateral is a kite if it has two sets of sides that are the same length and are adjacent to each other. A square fits this definition, so a square is a kite.
In what way is a kite like a square?
A kite has 4 sides and so does a square
What are parellelograms?
kite , rhombus, square, rectangle ,kite,etc...
Is a kite always never or sometimes a square?
A kite is never a square but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals
Is a square always sometimes or never a kite?
A kite is never a square but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals
Is a kite always a square?
no
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.
Is a kite a regular shape?
A kite is only a regular shape if it is also a square or rectangle.
Can a kite and a square be congruent?
yes
Why is a square the best shape for a kite?
a square has equal sizes
Are opposite angles equal in a kite?
The top and bottom of a kite will never be equal (unless it is a square)but the left and right angles of the kite will be.
