    The sum of all 4 angles must be 360° and the opposite angles are equal.

    You are told that B and D are 46° each:

    A + B + C + D = 360

    A + 46 + C + 46 = 360

    A + C + 92 = 360

    A + C = 268

    Since A and C are equal:

    x + x = 268

    2x = 268

    x = 134°

    Angles A and C are 134°.

    Sum of the internal angles of a closed polygon is 360°.

    Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.

    B = D = 46

    A = C = [360 - 2(46)]/2

    C = 180-46 = 134°

    ANS: C = 134°

    In a parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent and adjacent angles are supplementary.

    Since m∠B = m∠D = 46°, the adjacent angles (∠A and ∠C) must be supplementary (add to 180°)

    46° + m∠C = 180°

    m∠C = 180° - 46°

    m∠C = 134°
