Answer:

A reduction with scale factor of 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since S'T'U'V' is smaller than STUV, the dilation is called reduction.

Then, the scale factor is calculated as

Scale factor = Length of image/ Length of original

So, using the segment ST, we get

Length of image = Length of S'T' = 1

Length of original = Length of ST = 4

Then

Scale factor = 1/4

Therefore, the answer is

a reduction with scale factor of 1/4
