Answer:

The scale factor of the dilation is [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and this ratio is called the scale factor

Let

z------> the scale factor

so

[tex]z=\frac{K'J'}{KJ}=\frac{K'H'}{KH}=\frac{J'H'}{JH}[/tex]

substitute the values

[tex]z=\frac{K'J'}{KJ}[/tex] ----->  [tex]z=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

The scale factor is less than 1

therefore

The dilation is a reduction
