You can put this solution on YOUR website!
your proof is based on the properties of a kite.

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if you stand the kite up along the long diagonal, the horizontal anbles opposite to each other are congruen.
\n" ); document.write( "the short sides above the horizontal are congruent.
\n" ); document.write( "the long sides under the horizontal are congruent.
\n" ); document.write( "the long diagonal splits the kite into 2 goncguent triangle by SAS.
\n" ); document.write( "there is no additional construction needed as the properties of the kite itself provide the proof based on the properties of the kite.
\n" ); document.write( "check out the reference and you'll see what i mean.
