In any parellelogram ABCD, there are two facts that are always true:
The sum of the angles is always 360° (true for all convex quadrilaterals)
∠A=∠C , and ∠B=∠D
By corollary this means that 2B+2C=360°; B+C=180°. This property is what makes the opposite sides of a parellelogram parallel, as any polygon with two consecutive angles adding to 180° will have two parallel sides.
If B=C that gives us:
B+C=2B=180°
B=90°
And so if you have a parallelogram with two consecutive angles equal, you have a rectangle.
