How is the VLA similar to an optical telescope?

well,both telescopes let you look into the ground into the inner core and you see deep in he atmosphere which is space. Errr... The Very Large Array is an array of radio-telescopes, i.e. it detects radio emissions from stars and similar. An optical telescope as its name suggests, collects visible light. The similarity is that increasing the aperture increases the radiation-gathering power by a square-law. In an optical telescope this is achieved by a larger mirror (or lens but most large telescopes are reflecting.) The VLA uses a "synthetic aperture" to gain the advantages of increasing its gathering area without the cost and complexity of building a single, very large dish.

What type of radiation does the VLA telescope give off?

None whatsoever. The Very Large Array COLLECTS radiation, in the form of radio waves. The array has to be Very Large, because the signals are so incredibly faint. In fact, the energy of a single match, the kind you might use to light a campfire, is more than the energy collected in all the radio telescopes in the world in the last 100 years!
