Consider the effects of the 6 transformations on a figure.

Explanation:

I am assuming that your question asks which transformations change the shape of a figure?

The common transformations are:

  • Rotation, reflection, translation

These three do not change the change of a figure - they change the orientation, but not the shape.

  • enlargement or dilation

This changes the size of a figure, making it bigger or smaller, depending on the scale factor. However the actual shape stays the same, with the angles and the ratios of the sides being the same.

  • stretch and shear

Both of these distort the shape of the figure with the angles and the ratio of the sides changing.
