[b]The figure below will always remain a kite regardless of how you move the vertices.[/b][br]1. Click "Show all 4 angle measures." Move the vertices around. Write a conjecture about the angles in a kite.[br]2. Click "show diagonals." Then click "show additional angle measures." Write a conjecture about the diagonals of a kite.
