Question

The perimeter of a kite is 20cm. If the length of one pair of adjacent sides is 4cm. What is the length of the other two sides?

Answer 1

Answer:

The perimeter formula of a kite is,

Perimeter=2a+2b

Where,

a = The length of the first pair

b = The length of the second pair

Solved Example

Question: Find the perimeter of the kite whose equal sides are 18 cm and 26 cm.

Solution:

Given,

a = 18 cm

b = 26 cm

Perimeter of the kite = 2(a + b)

Perimeter of the kite = 2(18 + 26) = 2 × 44

Perimeter of the kite = 88 cm
