Kites

A kite is a four-sided object with two pairs of adjacent sides equal in length, forming a shape similar to a diamond. It has two diagonals intersecting at right angles, with one diagonal often longer than the other. Kites exhibit symmetry along one axis and are known for their aerodynamic properties, allowing them to glide and stay airborne when flown with wind. Their structure provides stability, making them popular as outdoor toys and for visual displays. Kites can be made from various materials like paper, fabric, or plastic, supported by a frame typically of lightweight wood or fiberglass.
