The quadrilateral PQRS is a parallelogram. Then, by this theorem, the sum of the measures of its consecutive angles is 180^(∘).
x^(∘)+ y^(∘) = 180 ^(∘)
Consider the parallelogram PQRS. By definition, and QR and PS are parallel.
Since PS and QR are parallel and PQ is a transversal, by the Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem, it can be stated that ∠ P and ∠ Q are supplementary.
x^(∘) + y^(∘) = 180^(∘)
Therefore, this equation implies that the consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.
