The total sum of a parallelogram should equal 360 degrees. If we already have a measure for one of the angles, 38 degrees, then there must also be a second angle (parallel from one another) that is also 38 degrees. The sum of these 2 angles is 76, and it is safe to say that the other two angles are identical as well. To find these angles you would conduct the following calculations: 360 degrees-76 degrees = 284 degrees. After getting the sum of 284 degrees, you would then divide this sum by 2 to get the measure of the other two angles which will be 142 degrees. To check your work add all four angles together to ensure they add up to 360 degrees.
38+38+142+142= 360
