- Enlarge shape 1 from point A by a scale factor of -1: This means reflecting the shape over point A and keeping the same size. The new shape will be congruent to the original but rotated 180 degrees around point A.
- Enlarge shape 2 from point B by a scale factor of -2: This means reflecting the shape over point B and doubling its size. The new shape will be twice as large as the original and rotated 180 degrees around point B.
- Enlarge shape 3 from point C by a scale factor of 2: This means scaling the shape up by a factor of 2 from point C without reflection. The new shape will be twice as large as the original and in the same orientation relative to point C.
- Enlarge shape 4 from point D by a scale factor of 1/2: This means scaling the shape down to half its size from point D without reflection. The new shape will be half the size of the original and in the same orientation relative to point D.
