Answer:

Reduction

Explanation:

Whenever you see a shape graphed where the points have ' after the letter, then that is the RESULT. So, the yellow parallelogram ABCD is the original, and the blue parallelogram A'B'C'D' is the result, which is obviously smaller than the original. So that means that it's a reduction.

I hope this made sense and helped! :)
