(a) Clearly does not change, as $MN=\frac{1}{2}AB$. Since $AB$ does not change, neither does $MN$.

(b) Obviously, the perimetar changes.

(c) The area clearly doesn't change, as the base and height remain the same.

(d) The bases $AB$ and $MN$ do not change, and neither does the height, so the trapezoid remains the same.

Only $1$ changes, so B.
