Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

A kite is a quadrilateral (has four sides and four angles) with two pairs of congruent adjacent sides.

From the image we can see that one pair of congruent side has be formed with a length of 30 feet. Therefore the amount of rope that has been used is 60 feet and 40 feet (100 - 60) of rope would be remaining to complete the kite. Hence 40 feet of rope would be used to make the other pair of adjacent side.

This means that the remaining pair of adjacent side would be 20 feet each so that all the roe would be used.
