To find the measure of side VS in the dilated quadrilateral, we need to use the scale factor of 2 to determine the relationship between the corresponding sides in the original and dilated quadrilaterals.

If the original side length of VS is 8, then the dilated side length of V'S' is 16, since 8 * 2 = 16.

Therefore, the measure of side VS in the dilated quadrilateral (S'T'U'V') is 16.
