The image shows two polygons on a coordinate plane, with one polygon (labelled \( D, E, F, G \)) in blue and another smaller, similarly-shaped polygon (labelled \( D', E', F', G' \)) in green. The two shapes appear to be related by a geometric transformation. 

From the positions of the points, it looks like the transformation could be a dilation, since the segments joining corresponding points (such as \( D \) to \( D' \), \( E \) to \( E' \), etc.) are parallel, indicating a scaling operation. The smaller polygon is likely a scaled-down version of the larger one, centered at a certain point, which is often the origin in such cases.

Would you like me to:
1. Identify the specific transformation applied (dilation factor and center)?
2. Explain the properties of the transformation?
3. Calculate the coordinates of each point?
4. Discuss how to derive the dilation factor?
5. Compare the side lengths and ratios between the polygons?

### Tip:
In dilation, if the scaling factor is greater than 1, the shape enlarges; if between 0 and 1, it shrinks. The center of dilation remains unchanged.

Analyze the transformation between two polygons displayed on the coordinate plane. Identify the type of transformation and calculate any relevant scaling factors or properties.

Explore a transformation involving two polygons on a coordinate plane. Understand how dilation works, including calculating the scaling factor, analyzing side lengths, and identifying key properties of similar shapes.
