Answer:

BC = 5cm because opposite sides are equal

Answer: BC = 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A kite is a quadrilateral in which two disjoint pairs of consecutive sides are of same length (“disjoint pairs” means that one side can’t be used in both pairs).

The properties of a kite are as follows:

  • Two disjoint pairs of consecutive sides are of same length by definition.

In the given question, ABCD is a kite, where,

AD=CD, AB=5 cm.

Step 1: AD and CD are two adjacent sides of the kite.

Step 2: AB=AD and BC=CD (by the first property as mentioned above)

Step 3: Since AB = 5 cm, and again AB = AD( as from step 1), we see that all the sides of the kites are of same length that is of 5 cm since we know from the first property that the disjoint sides of a kite are congruent or equal and again by the question the adjacent sides are also equal in size. So all the sides of the kite ABCD are of equal size, i.e, of 5 cm each.

Final ans: BC=5 cm

Conclusion: As explained above that all the sides of the kite are equal since BC is another side of the kite ABCD where BC is the adjacent side of the kite and is of 5 cm since as revealed that from the data given in the question that AD=CD which are adjacent sides of the kite ABCD, the ans is justified.
