Answer:

dilation by a factor of 1/3 about the origin

Explanation:

Each side of triangle B is 1/3 the length of the corresponding side of triangle A. This tells you dilation using a scale factor of 1/3 is involved.

Lines joining corresponding points of triangles A and B converge on the origin. This tells you the center of dilation is the origin.

The one transformation that maps A to B is ...

dilation by a factor of 1/3 about the origin

_____

Additional comment

No rotation, reflection, or translation are needed, since the triangles have the same orientation, and dilation fully accounts for their relative position.
