I believe they have Negative Slopes as stated by my Geometry Book.

If you are subtracting the negative from the positive, the answer will be positive. If you are subtracting the positive from the negative, the answer will be negative.
A negative times a positive is a negative and that negative times a negative would = a positive. So the answer would be a positive number. *<:)
No. A positive times a negative is always negative. A negative times a negative is always a positive.
A positive times a negative is negative, so positive 3 times negative 4 would be negative 12.
You would first prove that 3 of the sides are the same size (The 4th is automatically the same size as the other three). Then, you would prove that there are three right angles in the shape, using the slopes (If lines make a right angle, they are perpendicular and their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other.).
