~ Use the distance formula to measure the lengths of the sides.
~ Use the slope to check whether sides are perpendicular and form right angles.
~ Use the slope to check whether the diagonals are perpendicular to each.
I hope this helps ^-^

Answer:
- D. No, they are not similar.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Check the ratio of the two given sides:</u>
- MV/VT = 21/49 = 3/7
- LV/VU = 8/28 = 2/7
Ratios are different so the triangles are not similar
Correct choice is D
Answer:
x= 2 and y = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
8x + 3y = 4 ---------------------------------(1)
-7x + 5y = -34 -----------------------------(2)
Multiply through equation (1) by 5 and multiply through equation(2) by 3
40x + 15y = 20 ----------------------------(3)
-21x + 15y =-102----------------------------(4)
Subtract equation (4) from equation (3)
61x = 122
Divide both-side of the equation by 61
61x/61 = 122/61
(At the left-hand side of the equation 61 will cancel-out 61 leaving us with just x, while at the left-hand side of the equation 122 will be divided by 61)
x = 122/61
x=2
Substitute x= 2 into equation (1)
8x + 3y = 4
8(2) + 3y = 4
16 + 3y = 4
Subtract 16 from both-side of the equation
16-16 + 3y = 4-16
3y = -12
Divide both-side of the equation by 3
3y/3 = -12/3
y = -4
x= 2 and y = -4
