The area of a kite is 116.25 ft2, one diagonal measures 18.6 ft, find the measure of the other diagonal.
1 answer:
Answer:
The answer is 12.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
A kite is in the shape of a Rhombus.
The surface of a Rhombus is calculated using the following formula:
A is the surface and we know it's 116.25 ft2
p is one diagonal and we know it's 18.6 ft
q is the diagonal we do not know
So, we get:
we can then calculate
that is:
therefore the other diagonal q is:
q=232.50/18.6
q=12.5

The longest side
Think about it. The widest angle would leave a resulting long side to reach the ends of the angle
If you look at the picture, the side across from the widest angle has the longest length
