Can you find the measurements of a parallelogram if you only know that some of the angles are acute?

Can you give examples? & why?

TIA

No, you will need to know at least one side length. Otherwise they could have the same angle measurements, but be of different sizes. Sort of like concentric circles :) They fit inside each other. I'm sure there's a proper name for it but I don't know it :) :)

I appreciate the answer. My friend was reading me a question over the phone. :)
