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, $\frac{1}{2}$
