The measure of angle B' will be the same as the measure of angle B, because a dilation does not affect angle measurements.
Without the picture or more information about the points or side lengths, there is not enough information to answer the second question.

To get the scale factor, take the ratio of corresponding sides, such as A'B' / AB.12/01/21
