scale model
A figure resulting from a transformation is called an IMAGE
Scaling will proportionally reduce or enlarge a figure. The amount of scaling is given by the scale factor (greater than zero) If the scale factor is less than 1, the figure is reduced and it is sometimes called a contraction If the scale factor is greater than 1, the figure is enlarged, and it is called a dilation or enlargement. If a centre of enlargement is used, the distance of every point from the centre is multiplied by the scale factor. The scale factor can be negative in which case the distance to the new point is measured on the opposite side of the centre to the original point.
A transformation that slides a figure horizontally is called a translation. A transformation that slides a figure vertically is also called a translation.
The answer depends on the nature of the transformation.
