Question

1. what is the perimeter of kite pqrst? 87 cm 68 cm 58 cm

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the property of a kite

In a kite, two pairs of adjacent sides are equal. So \(PQ = QR = 17\) cm and \(PS = SR=12\) cm.

Step2: Calculate the perimeter

The perimeter \(P\) of a polygon is the sum of the lengths of its sides. For kite \(PQRS\), \(P=PQ + QR+RS + SP\). Substitute \(PQ = 17\) cm, \(QR = 17\) cm, \(RS = 12\) cm and \(SP = 12\) cm into the formula: \(P=(17 + 17+12 + 12)\) cm.
