To find the scale factor, we need to compare corresponding sides of the two trapezoids. Let's compare the longer base.
In the left trapezoid, the longer base has a length of 12 centimeters.
In the right trapezoid, the longer base has a length of 8 centimeters.
To find the scale factor, we divide the length of the longer base of the right trapezoid by the length of the longer base of the left trapezoid:
Scale factor = Length of longer base of right trapezoid / Length of longer base of left trapezoid
Scale factor = 8 centimeters / 12 centimeters
Scale factor = 2/3
Therefore, the scale factor is 2/3.
In the left trapezoid, the longer base has a length of 12 centimeters.
In the right trapezoid, the longer base has a length of 8 centimeters.
To find the scale factor, we divide the length of the longer base of the right trapezoid by the length of the longer base of the left trapezoid:
Scale factor = Length of longer base of right trapezoid / Length of longer base of left trapezoid
Scale factor = 8 centimeters / 12 centimeters
Scale factor = 2/3
Therefore, the scale factor is 2/3.

Apologies for the earlier incorrect response.
To find the scale factor, we need to compare corresponding sides of the two trapezoids. Let's compare the longer base.
In the left trapezoid, the longer base has a length of 12 centimeters.
In the right trapezoid, the longer base has a length of 9.6 centimeters.
To find the scale factor, we divide the length of the longer base of the right trapezoid by the length of the longer base of the left trapezoid:
Scale factor = Length of longer base of right trapezoid / Length of longer base of left trapezoid
Scale factor = 9.6 centimeters / 12 centimeters
Scale factor = 0.8
Therefore, the scale factor is 0.8.
