Answer: The correct option is (A) reduction.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that the quadrilateral A'B'C'D' is a dilation of the quadrilateral ABCD.
As shown in the given figure, the lengths of the sides of quadrilateral ABCD are as follows:
AB = 5 units, BC = 4 units, CD = 10 units and DA = 6 units.
And, the lengths of the sides of quadrilateral A'B'C'D' are as follows:
We know that the dilation will be an enlargement if the scale factor is greater than 1 and it will be a reduction if the scale factor is less than 1.
Now, the scale factor is given by
Since the scale factor is less than 1, so the dilation will be a reduction.
