How are rhombi and kites related?
AEvery kite is a rhombus
BNo rhombus is a kite
CEvery rhombus is a kite
DEvery kite is a square
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Every rhombus is a kite
1. A rhombus has four equal sides, so its sides group into two pairs of equal adjacent sides.
2. It is also symmetric across a diagonal, which is the kite requirement.
3. The reverse fails: a kite need not have all sides equal.
