Answer:

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}

Using the distributive property, which expression is equivalent to 6(g + 3)?
const2013 [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

Property: a(b+c)=ab+ac

<u />

<u>Use the Distributive Property:</u>

<u />6(g+3) =6(g)+6(3)=6g+18

6g + 18 is an equivalent expression when the distributive property is used.
