Question

In the given kite, AE = 6 ft , BE =9ft , and DE = 15ft . Determine the area of the kite .

Answer 1

Add AE Plus CE=12
BE Plus DE=24
The 12*24=288
Bc you multiply length times width

Answer 2

Answer:

The area of a kite is 144 ft².

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: AE = 6 ft , BE =9ft , and DE = 15ft .

Area of kite is

$A=\frac{1}{2}d_1d_2$

where, $d_1\text{ and }d_2$ are diagonals of kite.

From the given figure it is clear that BD and AC are diagonals of the kite.

$d_1=BD=BE+DE=9+15=24$

$d_2=AC=AE+CE=6+6=12$

The area of given kite is

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times 24\times 12$

$A=144$

Therefore the area of a kite is 144 ft².
