Kent notices that in parallelogram ABCD the consecutive (or adjacent) angles, 1 and 3, sum to 180 degrees. This means that they are supplementary. Will two adjacent angles of a parallelogram always add to 180 degrees? Why or why not? (Hint: What do you know about Sides AB and DC? If you let AD be a transversal, what does that imply about angles 1 and 2? What is the relationship between angles 2 and 3?)
