Given↷

  • Side of the square kite⇢18 feet

To find↷

  • Length of the vertical stripe ⇢ The diagonal of the given square kite

Answer↷

25.46 ft

Solution↷

To find the vertical stripe of the kite,we'll use this formula

  • √2a

where,

  • a ⇢ length of the side of the given kite

Inserting the value of 'a' ( 18ft) in the formula,

we get,

  • length of the vertical stripe =√2a⇢√2 x 18ft
  • length of the vertical stripe ⇢25.46 ft

hence , the length of the vertical stripe of the given square kite = 25.46 ft
