Question

A kite has A=72 cm2 and d1=8 cm. Identify the length of d2.

1. d2 = 9 cm
2. d2 = 16 cm
3. d2 = 4.5 cm
4. d2 = 18 cm

Answer 1

The second diagonal length of a kite that has an area of 72 sq. cm and a diagonal of 8 cm is calculated as: 4. d2 = 18 cm.

What is the Area of a Kite?

Area of a kite (A) = (d1 × d2)/2, where d1 and d2 are the diagonal lengths of the kite.

Given the following:

• A = 72 cm²
• d1 = 8 cm

Find d2 as shown below:

(8 × d2)/2 = 72

(8)(d2) = 2(72 )

d2 = 144/8

d2 = 18 cm.
