Answer:

Consider polygon G as a triangle or any quadrilateral, pentagon, Hexagon, Heptagon, Decagon,....

Now Polygon H is scaled copy of Polygon G by a scale factor of 1/4, it means

If the length of sides of triangle are a,b,c then scaled copy of triangle by using

1/4 means the new sides of polygon which is triangle will be a/4,b/4,c/4.

For example consider a parallelogram having sides 12 cm and 8 cm respectively.The scaled copy of parallelogram by a scale factor of 1/4 will be of length 1/4×12,1/4×8 which is parallelogram having sides 3 cm and 2 cm respectively.
