Construct a quadrilateral, not a parallelogram, in which pair of opposite angles and a pair of opposite sides...
$begingroup$
This question already has an answer here:
If a quadrilateral has a pair of equal opposite sides, and a pair of equal opposite angles, then is it necessarily a parallelogram?
3 answers
I want to construct a quadrilateral which is not a parallelogram, in which a pair of opposite angles and a pair of opposite sides are equal. I tried drawing one, but I am not able to. Please help. (And I dont think I will be able to post what I have tried or drawn. Hope the statement of the post is clear).
Umm, I understand that it might look like it is the duplicate of another similar question( I saw that post actually!). But I do not think it explained how to construct one. I know such a quadrilateral exists, that is not my real question. I want to know how it is constructed. I hope I made it clear.
Also, I wanted a short, simplified and clear solution for this(I can elaborate that).

Take $Delta ABK$ such that $measuredangle ABK>90^{circ}$ and let $Din AK$ such that $BD=BK$.
Now, let $Delta BDCcongDelta KBA$ such that $K$ and $C$ are placed in the same side respect to the line $DB$.
Thus, $ABCD$ is a needed quadrilateral because $AB=DC$ and $measuredangle A=measuredangle C$.
Easy to see that $ABCD$ is not parallelogram.

$begingroup$
$ABCD$ will always turn out to be concave?( I mean, I get a concave quadrilateral, and the nomenclature also differs, thats why)

And also, can you explain how $angle A$ = $angle C$?

@Anu Radha Yes, it concave. The equality of angles follows from congruent triangles.

Is there any particular reason why the resulting quadrilateral is concave rather than being convex? Why can it NOT be convex?

Also, by $angle A$ and $angle C$, which two angles do you mean? I dont understand how equality follows from the congruency..(Sorry, really!)

You are not succeeding in finding such a quadrilateral because none exists.
If $ABCD$ is such a quadrilateral with $|AD| = |BC|$ and $beta = delta$ then the triangles $ABC$ and $CDA$ are congruent. It follows that $sphericalangle CAB = sphericalangle DCA$, hence $AB$ is parallel to $DC$ from this you can easily deduce that the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
