Medal Awarded :) A kite is a rhombus a. always b. sometimes c. never
whats the definition of a kite ? whats the definition of a rhombus ?
Kite : sides are adjacent (the ones that are right next to each other) has four sides . Makes a perpendicular bisector Rhombus: four equal sides , equal obtuse and acute angels
Yes :) that can be reduced to below :- kite : two pairs of equal adjacent sides rhombus : all sides are equal
since, kite just requires two pairs of adjacent sides to be equal, a kite can be sometimes a rhombus

thats a kite cuz two pairs of adjacent sides are equal, but its not a rhombus as not all sides are equal
however, for some kites, when all sides equal, they can be rhombus ok
Okay I get it. Two sides of a kite are adjacent. But since a rhombus has four equal sides wouldn't that mean never? Wait so sometimes all sides are equal?
