Since parallelogram is irregular, its diagonals are not equal. Then the first time when the rotation image coincides with the preimage will be when the angle of rotation is equal to
180^0 (then one half of diagonal lies on the another half of this diagonal) and the second time when the angle of rotation is equal to
360^0 (when the image takes the initial position).
