Lesson 2. Kites and Darts

The document defines a kite as a quadrilateral with two pairs of congruent adjacent sides and one diagonal bisecting one of the interior angles. It provides properties and formulas for calculating the area of a kite, and examples of solving for unknown parts and finding areas of kites. It also notes that darts are concave kites with the same properties.
