a figure getting smaller
a figure moving to the left
a figure flipping upside down
a figure getting larger
a figure turning about a point
Dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a figure using a scale factor relative to a fixed center. A scale factor between 0 and 1 makes the figure smaller, while a scale factor greater than 1 makes it larger. Moving a figure, flipping it, or turning it are rigid transformations (translation, reflection, rotation) that do not change size, so they are not results of dilation.
