Answer: [tex]15.5\ mm^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

You can calculate the area of a kite with the following formula:

[tex]A=\frac{d_1d_2 }{2}[/tex]

Where [tex]d_1[/tex] is the length of a diagonal and [tex]d_2[/tex] is the length of the other diagonal.

In this case, you can identify that:

[tex]d_1=6.2\ mm\\d_2=5\ mm[/tex]

Therefore, the final step is to substitute the values into the formula.

Then, the area is:

 [tex]A=\frac{(6.2\ mm)(5\ mm)}{2}\\\\A=15.5\ mm^2[/tex]
