Rhombuses and kites worksheet
In a rhombus the diagonals meet at right angles and cut each other in half, so each quarter of the shape is a right triangle with half of each diagonal for legs. That is why the side comes from Pythagoras and the area is half the product. A kite's diagonals also meet at right angles, but only one of them is cut in half, and only one pair of opposite angles is equal.

How to do these
Diagonals of and
- Half of each is 3 and 4.
- Those are the legs of a right triangle.
- So the side is 5.
The answer is .
Where students go wrong
Using the whole diagonals as the legs. They bisect each other, so only half of each meets at the corner, and using both in full doubles the side.
Also called diagonals of a rhombus or kite properties.
