Solution

Let ABCD be a parallelogram, with and .

We know that in a parallelogram, the opposite angles are equal.

Therefore,

Thus, the given angles become

Similarly,

Also, adjacent angles in a parallelogram form the consecutive interior angles of parallel lines, which must be supplementary.

Therefore,

Similarly,

Thus, the angles of a parallelogram are ,, and .
