Properties and Characteristics of Kites

This document defines and describes the key properties of a kite shape. It states that a kite is a quadrilateral with two pairs of congruent and adjacent sides. It then provides details on the characteristics of a kite's sides, angles, and diagonals. Specifically, it notes that a kite has one pair of shorter congruent sides, one pair of longer congruent sides, only one pair of congruent opposite angles, and perpendicular diagonals where the longer diagonal bisects the shorter diagonal.
