Find the area of the following kite:
8 cm
2 cm
2 cm
2 cm
2
A = [?] cm2
Enter

Area = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular bisector of the triangle going from upper left to the middle marks the height of the triangle. It's area is found from the standard formula.

Area = b * h / 2

b = 2 + 2 = 4

h = 8

Area = 1/2  * 4 * 8

Area = 1/2 * 32

Area = 16

The smaller triangle is found from all the twos.

b = 2 + 2 same as the larger triangle

h = 2

Area = 1/2 2 * 4

Area = 1/2 8

Area = 4

Total Area = 4 + 8

Total Area = 12

answer: the answer is 127 degrees
