Have you already found a way to calculate the area of a kite?[br][br]Now explore a (new) way![br]Draw a kite (not too small) on a piece of paper and cut it along the sides. When you are finished you can start the video. You can, of course, stop it at any time.[br][br]Join us and have fun with folding!
What is the area of the folded rectangle?[br][br]A[sub]rectangle[/sub] = ?[br][br]
A[sub]rectangle[/sub] = (e*f)/8[br][br]
What is the are of the original kite?[br][br]A[sub]kite [/sub]= ?
A[sub]kite[/sub]= 4 * A[sub]rectangle [/sub]= (e*f) / 2
