The area of a kite is (1/2) * x * y, where x and y are the length of the two diagonals. In this case, the length of the two diagonals are 10 ft and 2 ft. <span>Plug that in the equation, we get 1/2 * 2 * 10. We multiply the 2 and 10 first to get 20, that leaves us with 1/2 x 20, which is 10, so the area of this kite is 10 ft squared.</span>
