To determine whether the dilation of quadrilateral ABCD to quadrilateral A'B'C'D' about point P is a reduction or an enlargement, we need to consider the scale factor of the dilation.
- If the scale factor is greater than 1, the dilation is an enlargement.
- If the scale factor is less than 1, the dilation is a reduction.
Without the specific measurements or information about the position of the points, I can't definitively say whether it is a reduction or an enlargement. You would need to compare the lengths of the corresponding sides or the distances from point P to see if the scale factor is greater than or less than 1.
If you can provide that information, I can help determine whether it is a reduction or an enlargement.
