the correct answer should be the 3rd a reduction with a scale factor of 1/4 

Answer:

a reduction with scale factor 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance between the two points be 1 unit

So, Length of ST = 4 units

Length of S'T' = 1 unit

Scale factor = [tex]\frac{\text{Length of side of image}}{\text{Length of side of pre-image}}[/tex]

Scale factor = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

So, the scale factor is [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

So, STUV is reduced by scale factor [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] to obtain S′T′U′V′

So, Option C is true : a reduction with scale factor 1/4
