Let \({\mathfrak C}\) be a quasicircle in the plane and \[ M_{\mathfrak C}= \sup {M'\over M},\quad \Lambda_{\mathfrak C}={\lambda_{\mathfrak C}+1 \over \lambda_{\mathfrak C}-1}, \] where \(M'\) is the modulus of the outer quadrilateral, which we obtain if we denote four points on \({\mathfrak C}\), \(M\) is the modulus of the inner quadrilateral with the same points and \(\lambda_{\mathfrak C}\) is the Fredholm eigenvalue of \({\mathfrak C}\). Let \(Q_{\mathfrak C}\) be the reflection coefficient of the quasicircle \({\mathfrak C}\), that is the smallest dilatation of all quasiconformal reflections acrossing \({\mathfrak C}\). The aim of the paper is the following inequality \(M_{\mathfrak C}\leq\Lambda_{\mathfrak C}\leq Q_{\mathfrak C}\). \(\Lambda_{\mathfrak C}\leq Q_{\mathfrak C}\) had been proved by Ahlfors. The author proves \(M_{\mathfrak C}\leq\Lambda_{\mathfrak C}\) using a conformal mapping of the inner quadrilateral onto a rectangle.
