What is the formula for the area of a kite?

$\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{diagonal AC} \times \text{diagonal BD}$ (correct)

$\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{diagonal AC} \times \text{diagonal BD}^2$

$\text{Area} = \text{diagonal AC} \times \text{diagonal BD}$

$\text{Area} = \text{diagonal AC} + \text{diagonal BD}$
