The following is an incomplete flowchart proving that the opposite angles of parallelogram JKLM are congruent:

Parallelogram JKLM is shown where segment JM is parallel to segment KL and segment JK is parallel to segment ML.

Extend segment JM beyond point M and draw point P, by Construction. An arrow is drawn from this statement to angle MLK is congruent to angle PML, Alternate Interior Angles Theorem. An arrow is drawn from this statement to angle PML is congruent to angle KJM, Corresponding Angles Theorem. An arrow is drawn from this statement to angle MLK is congruent to angle KJM, Transitive Property of Equality. Extend segment JK beyond point J and draw point Q, by Construction. An arrow is drawn from this statement to numbered blank 1, numbered blank 2. An arrow is drawn from this statement to angle QJM is congruent to angle LKJ, Corresponding Angles Theorem. An arrow is drawn from this statement to angle JML is congruent to angle LKJ, Transitive Property of Equality. Two arrows are drawn from this previous statement and the statement angle MLK is congruent to angle KJM, Transitive Property of Equality to opposite angles of parallelogram JKLM are congruent.
