Why are all rhombuses kites

Opposite sides are parallel. Diagonals bisect at right angles. Can a rhombus be a kite? Geometry Quadrilaterals Quadrilaterals. George C. Oct 15, Yes, a rhombus is always a kite. Explanation: A kite is a convex quadrilateral with two pairs of adjacent equal sides. A rhombus has two pairs of adjacent equal sides too, but all four sides are the same length. Note This answer assumes a positive definition of "kite" that does not deliberately exclude such special cases as rhombuses or squares.

Explanation: See the figures below. What is the ratio of the area Is a rhombus always a trapezoid? What is the What is a trapezoid? Which is always a rhombus? Question 3: Explain how a square is. Answer: i Having four sides makes it a quadrilateral ii Opposite sides are parallel so it is a parallelogram iii Diagonals bisect each other so it is a rhombus iv Opposite sides are equal and angles are right angles so it is a rectangle.

Question 4: Name the quadrilaterals whose diagonals. Question 6: ABC is a right-angled triangle and O is the mid point of the side opposite to the right angle. Explain why O is equidistant from A, B and C. Now AC and BD are diagonals of the rectangle.

In a rectangle diagonals are equal and bisect each other. Quadrilaterals Exercise 3.
