PLZ HELP!!!!!!! Can a kite be formed by drawing a triangle and then reflecting one or more times? Explain.
1 answer:
The answer is (B).
Draw any triangle ABC. Reflect this triangle across the line AB, creating triangle A'B'C' for which A'=A and B'=B. By definition of a reflection, sides B'C and B'C' are congruent. In addition, sides A'C and A'C' are congruent. The quadrilateral CA'C'B' has two pairs of consecutive sides that are congruent and no congruent opposite sides. By definition, this is a kite.
