Option A , B and D are true.

The statement which are true:

The length of side AD is 4 units

The length of side A'D' is 8 units.

The scale factor is, $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in figure trapezoid ABCD;

The coordinates of ABCD are:

A= (-4, 0)

B = (-2, 4)

C = (2,4)

D = (4, 0)

Since, trapezoid ABCD was dilated to create trapezoid A'B'C'D' as shown in figure;

The coordinates of A'B'C'D' are;

A' =(-2, 0)

B'=(-1, 2)

C' = (1, 2)

D' = (2, 0)

First calculate the length of AD

Using Distance formula for any two points i.e,

$\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Since, A = (-4, 0) and D = (4, 0)

then;

Length of AD = $\sqrt{(4-(-4))^2+(0-0)^2} = \sqrt{(4+4)^2} =\sqrt{64}=8$ units

Therefore, the length of side AD is, 8 units.

Similarly find the length of A'D'.

Where A' = (-2, 0) and D' =(2,0)

Using distance formula:

Length of A'D' = $\sqrt{(2-(-2))^2+(0-0)^2} =\sqrt{(2+2)^2}= \sqrt{4^2} = 4$

Therefore, the length of side A'D' is, 4 units.

Now, find the slope of CD and C'D'

where C =(2, 4) , D = (4, 0) , C' = (1, 2) and D' =(2,0)

using slope formula for any two points is given by:

$Slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$Slope of CD = \frac{0-4}{4-2} = \frac{-4}{2} = -2$

Similarly,

$Slope of C'D' = \frac{0-2}{2-1} = \frac{-4}{2} = -2$

Since, Sides CD and C'D' have same slope i.e, -2

Scale factor(k) states that every coordinate of the original figure has been multiplied by the scale factor.

If k > 1, then the image is an enlargement.if 0<k< 1, then the image is a reduction.If k = 1, then the figure and the image are congruent.

The rule for dilation with scale factor(k) is;

$(x, y) \rightarrow (kx , ky)$

To find the scale factor:

A = (-4, 0) and A' = (-2, 0)

$(-2, 0) \rightarrow (-4k , 0)$

On comparing we ghet;

-4k = -2

Divide -4 both sides we get;

$k = \frac{1}{2}$

∴ The Scale factor is, $k = \frac{1}{2}$

Since, k < 1 which implies the image is a reduction.

Therefore, the statements which are true regarding about trapezoids are;

The length of side AD is 4 units

The length of side A'D' is 8 units.

The scale factor is, $\frac{1}{2}$

Answer from: Quest

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
