Problem 43
REASONING Three interior angle measures of a quadrilateral are \(67^{\circ}, 67^{\circ}\) , and \(113^{\circ}\) . Is this enough information to conclude that the quadrilateral is a parallelogram? Explain your reasoning.
Problem 44
MAKING AN ARGUMEN POur friend claims that to I nd the interior angle measures of a regular polygon, you do not have to use the Polygon Interior Angles Theorem (Theorem 7.1). You instead can use the Polygon Exterior Angles Theorem (Theorem 7.2) and then the Linear Pair Postulate (Postulate 2.8 ). Is your friend correct? Explain your reasoning.
