Area formula of a kite

Area = (1/2) * (Diagonal_1)*(Diagonal_2)

where Diagonal_1 is one diagonal in the kite

and Diagonal_2 is 2nd diagonal in the kite

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a kite intersect at right angles and one diagonal bisects the other.

so you get two triangles, with a base length of (Diagonal 1)

the height_1 = a ,  height_2 = b

a + b = Diagonal_2

area of one triangle in Kite = (1/2)(Diagonal_1)*a

area of second triangle in Kite = (1/2)(Diagonal_1)*b

area of kite = area of triangle_1 + area of triangle_2

area of kite =  (1/2)(Diagonal_1)*a + (1/2)(Diagonal_1)*b

area of kite = (1/2)*(Diagonal_1)*(a + b)

Area of kite = (1/2) * (Diagonal 1)*(Diagonal2)
