10. CBQ - Determine the properties of kite from a reflector design

Question:

4 m.

A Relective caution sign is designed in the shape of a kite so that it is clearly visible at night. It maintains symmetry. To ensure proper alignment, a metal strip is fixed along one diagonal of the kite.

Based on the given information solve the following questions

1. While inspecting the reflector, the engineer notices a key feature that confirms it is a kite.

Two equal adjacent side pairs uniquely identify a kite.
Presence of two pairs of parallel sides.
Presence of one pair of parallel sides.
Diagonals intersect at their midpoints.

2. Which property of a kite explains why only one diagonal is chosen for support in the reflector?

Diagonals are equal in length.
One diagonal divides the kite into two congruent triangles.
Diagonals are parallel to adjacent sides.
All interior angles are equal.

3. The Relective caution sign splits into two congruent triangular regions. What does this reveal about that diagonal?

It acts as the axis of symmetry of the kite.
It divides the kite into four equal triangles.
It is the angle bisector of all angles.
It is parallel to a pair of sides.

4. The reflector does not have all equal angles. Which statement best explains the angle equality seen during inspection?

Angles formed by diagonals.
Angles opposite unequal sides.
Adjacent angles at the same vertex.
Angles between equal sides of the kite.
