Question

A kite is a quadrilateral with two pairs of adjacent, congruent sides. The vertex angles are those angles in between the pairs of congruent sides. Prove the diagonal connecting these vertex angles is perpendicular to the diagonal connecting the non-vertex angles. Be sure to create and name the appropriate geometric figures. This figure does not need to be submitted..

Answer 1

To verify whether the diagonals are perpendicular to each other, we find the slope of each segment and we can see that the slopes should be opposite reciprocals of each other.This means, these segments are really perpendicular. This theorem can be verified through congruent angles present in the quadrilateral.

Answer 2

@meerkat18 what is the theorem that is being verified through congruent angles present in the quadrilateral?
