by requiring the submission of reports from agencies
by controlling the budgets of executive agencies
by having the department of homeland security investigate the executive branch
by having a
o confidence\ vote and forcing a new presidential election
by vetoing executive actions after they have been taken

Explanation:

• "By requesting that a support agency review an executive agency": Congress can use support agencies (like GAO) to review executive agencies, so this applies.
• "By requiring the submission of reports from agencies": Congress can mandate agencies to submit reports for oversight, so this applies.
• "By controlling the budgets of executive agencies": Congress holds the power of the purse, controlling executive agency budgets to limit power, so this applies.
• "By having the Department of Homeland Security investigate the executive branch": DHS is part of the executive branch, so it can't investigate its own branch for Congress in this way, so this does not apply.
• "By having a 'no confidence' vote and forcing a new presidential election": The US system does not have "no confidence" votes to force presidential elections, so this does not apply.
• "By vetoing executive actions after they have been taken": The veto power belongs to the President (executive), not Congress. Congress can override a presidential veto, but not veto executive actions, so this does not apply.

Answer:

• By requesting that a support agency review an executive agency
• By requiring the submission of reports from agencies
• By controlling the budgets of executive agencies
