Using the property of a kite, the value of x in the kite above is calculated as: x = 20.

How to apply the property of a kite?

A kite has two diagonals that intersect each other perpendicular, therefore, they intersect at right angles.

Thus, we have:

2x + 10 + 2x + 90 = 180 (triangle sum theorem)

4x + 100 = 180

4x = 180 - 100 (subtraction property of equality)

4x = 80

4x/4 = 80/4 (division property of equality)

x = 20
