A kite has two pairs of adjacent equal sides and, crucially, perpendicular diagonals — so the same half-the-product-of-the-diagonals rule that governs the rhombus applies here too. The long diagonal is the axis of symmetry, the spine of an actual kite; the short one is the cross spar. Sailmakers, glaziers cutting diamond panes, and anyone laying out a diamond-pattern deck all reach for this one.
