alleryIn a kite, the diagonal along the symmetry axis does what to the angles at its ends?
ATrisects both of them
BDoubles both of them
CLeaves them unequal
DBisects both of them
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Bisects both of them
1. The mirror line of a kite is one of its diagonals.
2. Reflection swaps the two halves, so each end angle is split into two equal parts.
3. So it bisects both angles; it does not trisect, double or leave them unequal.
