Solution

The correct option is B False
Properties of a parallelogram:
The measure of two angles when added are $90 °$ , is called complementary angles.
When two angles of a parallelogram are added it sums up to $180 °$ . As, the consecutive angles of a parallelogram are between the two parallel lines and on the same side of the transversal.
Hence, the given statement is false.
