This GeoGebra applet dynamically illustrates the properties of a kite without specifying segment lengths or angle measures. The construction involves commands such as Segment, Midpoint, OrthogonalLine, Point, Ray, Circle, Intersect, etc. Suitable for students in middle school and above to explore the geometric properties of kites.
