    Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.

    You have to calculate the slope for each pair, and if the slope is equal - 3 the segment is parallel to MN.

    For example:

    TU: slope = (10-1) / (5-8) = 9/-3 = - 3 then TU is parallel to MN

    For WX:

    slope = (0-6) / (4-2) = - 6/2 = - 3 then WX is parallel to MN

    IF you do the same for PQ and RS you will get a diferent value for slope.
