Theorem 80
In a parallelogram, any two Theorem 81
Since EFGH is a quadrilateral,
consecutive angles are In a parallelogram, any two
supplementary. m∠E+m∠G+m∠F+m∠H = 360ᵒ
opposite sides are congruent
This mean that ∠E and ∠F are m∠E+m∠E+m∠F+m∠F = 360ᵒ
2m∠E+ 2m∠F = 360ᵒ EH = FG and EF = HG
supplementary.
2(m∠E+m∠F) = 360ᵒ
m∠E+m∠F = 360ᵒ = 180ᵒ
