Refer to attachment for the diagram.
Given ,the opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel. So, it is a parallelogram.
And given one angle of quadrilateral is 60°.
As we know, opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.
Thus the opposite angle is also 60°.
Now, see the diagram.
angle DAB = angle DCB i.e., 60°
angle DAB + angle DCB + angle CDA + angle ABC = 360°
[Sum of angles of a parallelogram is 360°]
=> 60° + 60° + angle CDA + angle CDA = 360°
[Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal]
=> 120° + 2 angle CDA = 360°
=> 2 angle CDA = 360° – 120°
=> 2 angle CDA = 240°
=> angle CDA = 240° / 2
=> angle CDA = angle ABC = 120°
Hence, the other angles of quadrilateral are 60°, 120° and 120°.

=> angle CDA = angle ABC = 120°
Hence, the other angles of quadrilateral are 60°, 120°
