Is a diamond a kite?
Kites are often shaped like diamonds, or modified diamond shapes.
Is every rhombus kite shaped?
A rhombus has four sides of equal length, and opposite angles are equal.A rhombus with right angles is a square.A rhombus without right angles is ...a rhombus!# So the shape of a rhombus can be square. Some kites are square. # or a rhombus can be 'diamond' shaped, like the diamond on a suite of playing cards. Some kites are diamond shaped.But some kites are shaped like a box (a box kite, for example!), and some kites are shaped like dragons! A rhombus does not look like a box, nor like a dragon!* For more information, and some diagrams, see Related links below.
All trapezoids are kites?
Not all trapezoids are kites. A trapezoid is a 4-sided figure with a pair of parallel sides, so any item, not just kites, can manifest this shape.
Do kites have parallel sides?
Yes, kites do have parallel lines. at least the classic, diamond- shaped ones do. It is not the two perpendicular sticks in the middle, but rather the sides. In this diagram, it shows how they are parallel:
Do all kites need a tail to help them fly?
No, some kites fly badly with a tail. The tail add stability to a badly balanced kite but it also adds weight so can drag a gently pulling kite down. Unless a kite is homemade or asymetric in design it should be well balanced. As most kites are now mass produced and quite accurate people mostly use them to look pretty! A few kites (Sodi's) have rope tails to add weight at the base and produce the correct angle of attact to the wind. A looped tail made from a single piece of fabric and attached at two points on the base of the kite is used on some kites such as smaller sleds to add to the lift. Kites such as box kites and tetrahedral kites are stable without tails. The most common kite requiring a tail is the flat diamond kite.
What is the most common shape of kite?
Kites come in many different shapes, but the most common shape is the diamond.
What is the shape of a kite?
Kites come in different shapes, but the most common is a diamond.
What does kites have to do with math?
a kite is a shape in geometry, and math. it resembles a rhombus, a diamond like shape used in math and geometry.
A kite is always a parallelogram?
Most kites are (its common). But there are other kites that are a different shape. The ones with a different shape are usually a bigger size.
Do kites have two lines of symmetry?
Depends on what type of shape it is. If its a diamond shaped kite then it does have 2 lines or symmetry
What are diamond kites for?
to be diamondy
Does a kite have any right angle?
It depends upon the construction of the kite. Most kites are diamond shape, meaning they have a pair of obtuse and a pair of acute angles. However many kites have support rods in a cross formation that meet at a right angle in the center of the kite.
Do kites have four sides?
yes kites have four sides ***************************************************************** Answer 2: A traditional diamond-shaped kite has 6 sides (don't forget the front side and the back side). But when drawn as a geometric figure a diamond kite has 4 sides. There are many other shapes for kites, from pentagonal and polygonal kites, delta kites, figural kites (in the shapes of fish, birds, dragons, etc.), box kites, and more, so the answer to your question would depend on the type of kite. Perhaps a more challenging question would be how to find the area of a kite, given that the edges (sides) on most kites are not of equal length.
Is a diamond a kite?

Is a kite a diamond?

Can kites be quadrilateral?
The geometric shape, known as a kite, must be a quadrilateral.
Facts about the shape of a kite?
kites are actually named after wind blown flying kites,which often have this shape and which are in turn nmaed for a bird beacause birds fly by the wind.
