• Kites and trapezoids are quadrilaterals that do not fall under the category of parallelograms.



A kite is a quadrilateral with exactly two pairs of congruent consecutive sides.

Kite Properties:1.Diagonals are perpendicular.

2.Only the pair of non-vertex angles are congruent.

3.Diagonals only bisect the vertex angles.

4.Only the diagonal through the non-vertex angles is bisected.


6-6 Properties of Kites and TrapezoidsLucy is framing a kite with wooden dowels. She uses two dowels that measure 18 cm, one dowel that measures 30 cm, and two dowels that measure 27 cm.

• A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides.

• Each of the parallel sides is called a base. • The nonparallel sides are called legs. • Base angles of a trapezoid are two consecutive

angles whose common side is a base.



Isosceles Trapezoid• The bases are parallel. • The legs are congruent.• Both pairs of base angles are congruent. • Leg angles add up to 180 degrees.• The diagonals are congruent.• Diagonals do not bisect each other.
