- For shape A with scale factor -1: The image is a congruent triangle located on the opposite side of the center of dilation, rotated 180 degrees.
- For shape B with scale factor -1: The image is a congruent triangle located on the opposite side of the center of dilation, rotated 180 degrees.
- For shape C with scale factor -2: The image is a similar triangle twice the size, located on the opposite side of the center of dilation, rotated 180 degrees.
- For shape D with scale factor -2: The image is a similar parallelogram twice the size, located on the opposite side of the center of dilation, rotated 180 degrees.
- For shape E with scale factor -1/2: The image is a similar triangle half the size, located on the opposite side of the center of dilation, rotated 180 degrees.
- For shape F with scale factor -1/2: The image is a similar arrow half the size, located on the opposite side of the center of dilation, rotated 180 degrees.
