To determine the values of \( m \) and \( n \) for which quadrilateral \( ABCD \) is a parallelogram, we can use properties of angles in a parallelogram:
1. **Opposite angles are equal**: \( \angle A = \angle C \) and \( \angle B = \angle D \).
2. **Consecutive angles are supplementary**: \( \angle A + \angle B = 180^\circ \) and \( \angle C + \angle D = 180^\circ \).
Assuming \( ZA = m \), \( ZB = n \), and given the measures of \( \angle C \) and \( \angle D \), we want to set up a system of equations based on these properties.
Now, we need to express the measures in a specific relationship. Whether \( \angle A \) and \( \angle B \) are equal to \( m \) and \( n \) (or something related), more information would typically be necessary to finalize \( m \) and \( n \).
### Case for Opposite angles:
If \( m = \angle C \) and \( n = \angle D \) (which are opposite angles), then we can directly set \( m = n \).
### Case for Consecutive Angles:
If we assume \( m + n = 180^\circ \) (which are consecutive angles), then we can directly relate them as supplementary.
### Conclusion:
1. If you compute \( m \) and \( n \) such that either:
\[
m + n = 180^\circ \quad \text{(for consecutive angles)}
\]
or:
\[
m = n \quad \text{(for opposite angles)}
\]
Thus, values of \( m \) and \( n \) can be derived based on their relationships in accordance with the properties of parallelograms.
If you have specific measures or forms of angles \( \angle A \), \( \angle B \), \( \angle C \), and \( \angle D \) outlined already, please provide them for a precise solution.
