other.
9. The area of a kite is equal to
one half the product of the
diagonals.

13. The consecutive angles of a
trapezoid are supplementary
14. The diagonals of a trapezoid

PROPERTIES OF KITE
 A kite is a special type of
quadrilateral wherein two
consecutive sides are congruent.
 The diagonals of a kite are
perpendicular to each other.
 One diagonal bisects the vertex
angles and the other two angles are
equal.
 The area of a kite is equal to half
the product of its diagonals.
PROPERTIES OF TRAPEZOIDS
 A trapezoid is isosceles if and only
if the base angles are congruent.
 A trapezoid is isosceles if and only
if the diagonals are congruent.
 The median of a trapezoid is
parallel to the bases and equal to
half the sum of the bases.
