Dilating a trapezoid involves changing its size.

The measure of side OL is 8

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{O'L' = 6}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{k = \frac 34}[/tex]

Side length O'L' is calculated using:

[tex]\mathbf{O'L' = OL \times k}[/tex]

Make OL the subject

[tex]\mathbf{OL = \frac{O'L'}{k}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{OL = \frac{6}{3/4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{OL = 8}[/tex]

Hence, the measure of side OL is 8
