To provide the missing dimensions of the scaled figure, I need the dimensions of the original figure (length and width).

If the dimensions of the original figure are given as ( l ) and ( w ), then for a 1/4-scale drawing:

1. Length of the smaller rectangle (l₁): ( l₁ = frac{l}{4} )
2. Width of the smaller rectangle (w₁): ( w₁ = frac{w}{4} )
3. Area of the smaller rectangle (A₁): ( A₁ = l₁ times w₁ = left(frac{l}{4}right) times left(frac{w}{4}right) = frac{l times w}{16} )

Make sure to substitute ( l ) and ( w ) with the actual measurements of the original figure to calculate ( l₁ ), ( w₁ ), and ( A₁ ). If you need more help, don’t hesitate to check the extended services page!
