5. A kite is a quadrilateral with exactly two pairs of congruent consecutive sides.

7. Example 1: Problem-Solving Application
Lucy is framing a kite with wooden dowels. She uses two dowels that measure 18 cm, one dowel that measures 30 cm, and two dowels that measure 27 cm. To complete the kite, she needs a dowel to place along . She has a dowel that is 36 cm long. About how much wood will she have left after cutting the last dowel?

9. Example 2
What if...? Daryl is going to make a kite by doubling all the measures in the kite. What is the total amount of binding needed to cover the edges of his kite? How many packages of binding must Daryl buy?

11. Example 3: Using Properties of Kites
In kite ABCD, mDAB = 54°, and mCDF = 52°. Find mBCD.

12. Example 3.5: Using Properties of Kites
In kite ABCD, mDAB = 54°, and mCDF = 52°. Find mABC.

13. Example 4: Using Properties of Kites
In kite ABCD, mDAB = 54°, and mCDF = 52°. Find mFDA.

14. Example 5
In kite PQRS, mPQR = 78°, and mTRS = 59°. Find mQRT.

15. Example 5a
In kite PQRS, mPQR = 78°, and mTRS = 59°. Find mQPS.

16. Example 5b
In kite PQRS, mPQR = 78°, and mTRS = 59°. Find each mPSR.

17. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. Each of the parallel sides is called a base. The nonparallel sides are called legs. Base angles of a trapezoid are two consecutive angles whose common side is a base.

18. If the legs of a trapezoid are congruent, the trapezoid is an isosceles trapezoid. The following theorems state the properties of an isosceles trapezoid.

20. Example 6: Using Properties of Isosceles Trapezoids
Find mA.

21. Example 7: Using Properties of Isosceles Trapezoids
KB = 21.9m and MF = Find FB.

22. Example 8
Find mF.

23. Example 9
JN = 10.6, and NL = Find KM.

24. Example 10: Applying Conditions for Isosceles Trapezoids
Find the value of a so that PQRS is isosceles.

25. Example 11: Applying Conditions for Isosceles Trapezoids
AD = 12x – 11, and BC = 9x – 2. Find the value of x so that ABCD is isosceles.

26. Example 12
Find the value of x so that PQST is isosceles.

27. The midsegment of a trapezoid is the segment whose endpoints are the midpoints of the legs. In Lesson 5-1, you studied the Triangle Midsegment Theorem. The Trapezoid Midsegment Theorem is similar to it.

29. Example 13: Finding Lengths Using Midsegments
Find EF.

30. Example 14
Find EH.
