Answer: B. No, the adjacent sides are not perpendicular.

Explanation:

B(2,4), A(4, -1), C(-2, 2), D(0, -3)

Slope of BA =
(4-(-1))/(2-4) = (5)/(-2)

Slope of CD =
(2-(-3))/(-2-0) =(5)/(-2)

BA║CD

Slope of BC =
(4-2)/(2-(-2)) =(2)/(4) =(1)/(2)

Slope of AD =
(-1-(-3))/(4-0) =(2)/(4) =(1)/(2)

BC║AD

Slope of BA
=(5)/(-2)

Slope of BC
=(1)/(2)

BA is not perpendicular to BC
