Question

What are the properties for a kite? How would you use these to prove that adjacent sides are congruent?

Answer 1

@peachbubs

Answer 2

Is that the whole question ?

Answer 3

Yep ;-;

Answer 4

k

Answer 5

Well that's a bit confusing. But it's still solvable ! Let's start by drawing a kite. This isn't the best kite, but bare with me here.

Answer 6

XD okay I am baring

Answer 7

Adjacent sides are sides that come directly off whatever you're referring to. So, a side adjacent to another side comes directly off that other side. Do you follow ?

Answer 8

So lets say these two sides are the adjacent sides

Answer 9

The pink ones, that is.

Answer 10

sorry I was spacing a little, yes i follow

Answer 11

@peachbubs ;-;

Answer 12

Sorry ! Somebody mentioned me in another question.

Answer 13

it's okay :( I have a DBA in 2 hours and don't understand the answers yet im pretty screwed

Answer 14

So, properties of a kite are that it has
- 2 sets of parallel lines
- 2 sets of congruent angles

Answer 15

Anything else you can think of ?

Answer 16

4 sets of adjacents?

Answer 17

Okay ! I think that's it. So, to prove the adjacent lines are congruent we must look at the fact that on either side of adjacents (top/bottom, left/right), the angles are congruent.

Answer 18

okay

Answer 19

one second brb I need to feed the fire

Answer 20

Okay ! LOL

Answer 21

So, hopefully these clears up some confusion on my previous statement.

Answer 22

So, the proof that the adjacent sides are congruent is that the opposite angle on adjacent sides is always congruent ! (I hope)

Answer 23

@peachbubs okay back

Answer 25

I was also given this earlier if it means anything?

Answer 26

The link won't work for some reason

Answer 27

weird

Answer 28

I'm still not understanding how you found our that the adjacent sides are congruent

Answer 29

I'm not sure how else to explain it, sorry.

Answer 30

It's okay

Answer 31

thank you

Answer 32

Anytime !
