Let ABCD is a quadrilateral.
<A+<B+<C+<D = 360 ----(1) [ Sum of the angles in a quadrilateral=360]
given <A =<C ----(2)
<B= <D----(3)
<A +<B +<A +<B =360 [using (2) and (3) in (1)]
2[<A+<B] =360
<A+<B =360/2
<A+<B =180 [ sum of the adjacent angles are supplementary in a quadrilateral then it is a parallelogram]
therefore
if the opposite angles of a quadrilateral are equal then it is a parallelogram
<A+<B+<C+<D = 360 ----(1) [ Sum of the angles in a quadrilateral=360]
given <A =<C ----(2)
<B= <D----(3)
<A +<B +<A +<B =360 [using (2) and (3) in (1)]
2[<A+<B] =360
<A+<B =360/2
<A+<B =180 [ sum of the adjacent angles are supplementary in a quadrilateral then it is a parallelogram]
therefore
if the opposite angles of a quadrilateral are equal then it is a parallelogram
