Worked Example 2: Parallelogram Angles
In a parallelogram, one angle is 65°. Find all other angles.
Step 1 Find the opposite angle
Opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal
Opposite angle = 65°
Step 2 Find the adjacent angles
Adjacent angles are co-interior (add to 180°)
Adjacent angle = 180° − 65° = 115°
All four angles: 65°, 115°, 65°, 115°
