SSIA, theorem
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram, we have;
Side AD is parallel to side BC, and side AB is a common transversal to AD and BC
∠A and ∠B are same side interior angles, SSIA, formed between parallel lines, therefore, according to Same Side Interior Angles theorem, we have;
∠A and ∠B are supplementary angles and therefore, ∠A + ∠B = 180°
Similarly, the angles ∠C and ∠D formed by the transversal CD and the parallel sides AD and BC are same side interior angles
∴ ∠C and ∠D are supplementary angles and ∠∠C + ∠D = 180°
