Inside, rail first.

Is it just me or does that table not look square?
Do I have to cut it, or can I play it 4 rails. Legit asking.
There's no trick to it, it's a stock shot. 90% sure I know where that pic came from.
At 90 degrees I'd juice it up. You can centerball it on a loose table but that's contingent on how comfortable you are cheating the pocket. Either way you have to turn the ball loose; juicing it is more predictable for me.
Boom, first answer!
I was thinking Ray Martin but the style of the table is wrong.

I usually hit those with a low ball. I think it can give you a bit of swerve to help it towards the pocket so that the spin gripping the rail has some help. What does hitting above center do for you? I'll have to try it tomorrow.

This is so clearly a 7 rail kick shot that I can't believe anyone would even dare presume otherwise. Just shoot at the fourth diamond with outside-spin, and it's over.
This or bank it

Very hard cut to make like in the illustration. Spinning it in it's a simple shot.
You get the 8
If you're not confident shooting it, play safe. Bank the object ball to the middle of the foot rail, and leave the cue ball in the middle of the head rail. Depends on what game you are playing I guess.

Very Well.
Not sure why you'd think I wouldn't cut the ball in
