Sample Response: A kite has two pairs of congruent

adjacent sides and opposite sides that are not

congruent. Jared has already created one pair of

congruent adjacent sides. Since he has used 60 ft of

rope, there are 40 ft remaining. This means that he will

need 20 ft of rope for each of the other sides, or half of

the remaining rope, in order to create another pair of

congruent adjacent sides. Since this is a different length

than 30 ft, the shape has opposite sides that are not

congruent.
