Answer:

The answer is 12.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A kite is in the shape of a Rhombus.

The surface of a Rhombus is calculated using the following formula:

[tex]A=p*q/2[/tex]

A is the surface and we know it's 116.25 ft2

p is one diagonal and we know it's 18.6 ft

q is the diagonal we do not know

So, we get:

[tex]116.25=18.6*q/2[/tex]

we can then calculate

[tex]2*116.25=18.6*q[/tex]

that is:

[tex]232.50=18.6*q[/tex]

therefore the other diagonal q is:

q=232.50/18.6

q=12.5
