# A kite has two pairs of congruent sides.
# Its diagnols intersect at right angles.
# The sum of its four sides would be its perimetre.
# Its area is given by the formula <math>1/2 x product of its diagnols </math>

*Process/ Developmental Questions
*Process:
*Evaluation
# The teacher can project the geogebra file on kite.
*Question Corner
# Show them that a kite is made of two isosceles traingles.
# Sum of areas of these two triangles would be the area of the kite.
*Developmental Questions
# What is a kite /
# What are the properties of a kite.
# What other figures can you see in a kite ?
# What types of triangles are these ?
# Identify the two isosceles triangles ?
# What is the formula to find the area of a triangle ?
*Evaluation:
# Choosing which two traingles out of the 8 visible types would be easy to deduce the area of kite ?
*Question Corner:
# Recall the two formulae that you know to find the area of a triangle.
