Area of a Kite WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet helps students develop their understanding of area and problem solving through a focus on calculating the area of a kite.
In Section A, learners begin by finding the areas of triangles, reinforcing prior knowledge of basic area calculations, before using these results to work out the area of a kite.
Section B builds on this by introducing the formula area = ab/2, where a and b represent the diagonals of the kite, giving learners structured practice in applying it to a variety of examples.
Section C then extends the challenge with more demanding problems, including finding missing lengths when the area is provided, forming and solving equations linked to area, and applying perimeter knowledge alongside area concepts. This progression ensures that students not only gain fluency with the formula but also strengthen reasoning and problem-solving skills, making the worksheet valuable for classwork, revision, or independent study.
