The theatre in the town is built in the form of a kite. It's perimeter is 100 m. If one of the sides measure 20 m, then what are the measurements of others sides?

  • A.20 m, 35 m, 35 m
  • B.20 m, 25 m, 25 m
  • C.20 m, 40 m, 40 m
  • D.20 m, 30 m, 30 m

Answer: D

W.K.T, the shape of Kite resembles Quadrilateral.
The adjacent sides of a kite are of equal length.

Given, perimeter of Quadrilateral = 100 m
Length of one of the side = x = 20 m
Let the Length of other side = y

W.K.T, perimeter of Quadrilateral = sum of the length of all the four sides
---> 100 = 20 + 20 + y + y
---> 100 = 40 + 2y
---> 60 = 2y
---> y = 30 m

Hence, the length of sides of the kite (ie., Quadrilateral) = 20 m, 20 m, 30 m, 30 m
