It looks like you've uploaded a worksheet titled
"Perimeter of Kite Worksheet" that contains six different kites, each with side lengths labeled. The goal is to calculate the
perimeter of each kite.
Since I can't view images directly, I’ll guide you through solving this type of problem step-by-step based on the typical layout of such worksheets.

🔷 What is a Kite?
A
kite is a quadrilateral with two pairs of adjacent (consecutive) sides that are equal in length.
For example:
- Sides: AB = AD and CB = CD
- So, two pairs of adjacent sides are equal.

🔷 How to Find the Perimeter of a Kite
The
perimeter of a kite is the sum of all four side lengths.
Because a kite has two pairs of equal adjacent sides, if the two distinct side lengths are:
- $ a $ and $ b $
Then the perimeter is:
$$
P = 2a + 2b
$$
Or simply:
$$
P = 2(a + b)
$$

Now let’s assume the six kites on your worksheet look like this (based on common problems):
---
####
✔ Kite 1
- Two sides: 5 cm
- Two sides: 8 cm
- Perimeter = $ 2(5 + 8) = 2 \times 13 = 26 $ cm
####
✔ Kite 2
- Two sides: 6 cm
- Two sides: 9 cm
- Perimeter = $ 2(6 + 9) = 2 \times 15 = 30 $ cm
####
✔ Kite 3
- Two sides: 7 cm
- Two sides: 10 cm
- Perimeter = $ 2(7 + 10) = 2 \times 17 = 34 $ cm
####
✔ Kite 4
- Two sides: 4 cm
- Two sides: 12 cm
- Perimeter = $ 2(4 + 12) = 2 \times 16 = 32 $ cm
####
✔ Kite 5
- Two sides: 9 cm
- Two sides: 11 cm
- Perimeter = $ 2(9 + 11) = 2 \times 20 = 40 $ cm
####
✔ Kite 6
- Two sides: 5.5 cm
- Two sides: 7.5 cm
- Perimeter = $ 2(5.5 + 7.5) = 2 \times 13 = 26 $ cm

📌 Final Answer Format (for each kite):
You would write:
1.
Perimeter: 26 cm
2.
Perimeter: 30 cm
3.
Perimeter: 34 cm
4.
Perimeter: 32 cm
5.
Perimeter: 40 cm
6.
Perimeter: 26 cm
> ⚠️ Note: These values are
examples based on typical problems. To give the exact answer, I'd need the actual measurements from your image.

✔ How to Solve It Yourself:
1. Identify the two
pairs of equal adjacent sides.
2. Add one pair and double it: $ P = 2(a + b) $
3. Write the answer in the blank provided.

If you can provide the
side lengths for each kite (e.g., "Kite 1: 5, 5, 8, 8"), I can give you the exact perimeters!
