Is parallelogram a kite?

Answer:

No

Explanation:

All parallelograms are not a kite.

A kite is a quadrilateral with two disjoint pairs ( no side is in both pairs ) of equal-length, adjacent ( sharing a vertex ) sides. A parallelogram also has two pairs of equal-length sides, however they must be opposite, as opposed to adjacent.

Answer:

Kites are a special type of quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of consecutive sides the same length. ... Similarly, every kite is not a parallelogram, because the opposite sides of a kite are not necessarily parallel.
