| + | # A kite is a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides that are congruent. |
| + | # Kites have two pairs of congruent sides that meet at two different points. |
| + | # Kites have a couple of properties that will help us identify them from other quadrilaterals. |
| + | * The diagonals of a kite meet at a right angle.<br> |
| + | *Kites have exactly one pair of opposite angles that are congruent.<br> |
| + | Notice that a right angle is formed at the intersection of the diagonals, which is at point N. Also, we see that <K = <M. This is our only pair of congruent angles because <J and <L have different measures. |
