When you studied geometry in high school, was the kite shape covered?

Asked by LostInParadise (31925points) 3 months ago

Geometry is one branch of mathematics that I have stayed away from and I would like to know more about it. Though I would like eventually cover non-Euclidean geometries, I am reviewing the basics with a book Geometry for Dummies.

I am familiar with most of the material so far, but they mention the kite shape as a special type of quadrilateral, which was not mentioned in my high school class. One thing of interest is that a rhombus is both a type of parallelogram and a type of kite, so it has properties that combine the two.
