option a is correct others are looking wrong

Answer 2

Answer:

A. Both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.  

C. Both pairs of opposite angles are congruent.  

D. All pairs of consecutive angles are supplementary

Step-by-step explanation:

Every parallelogram has these three properties. If only one pair of opposite sides is required to be parallel, the shape is a trapezoid, not a parallelogram. If a pair of consecutive angles are supplementary, i. e., their addition is equal to 180°, then all pairs of consecutive angles are supplementary, and consequently, both pairs of opposite angles are congruent, that is, they have the same measure.
