Question

A kite is shown. Lines are drawn from each point to the opposite point to form a letter t.
A company designs a logo using a kite figure around the letter t.

The logo is 12 centimeters wide and 16 centimeters tall. What is the area of the logo?

48 sq. cm
96 sq. cm
144 sq. cm
192 sq. cm

Answer 1

A kite's area = (product of its diagonals)/2. The logo's diagonals are 12 cm and 16 cm, so area = (12·16)/2 = 192/2 = 96 cm².

Answer: 96 sq. cm.
