The transformation in which the preimage and its image are congruent is called a rigid transformation or isometry. This type of transformation preserves distances and angles, meaning that the shape and size of the figure remain unchanged. Common examples include translations, rotations, and reflections. As a result, the original figure and its transformed version are congruent.

A transformation that does not produce a congruent image is a dilation. While dilations change the size of a figure, they maintain the shape, meaning the resulting image is similar but not congruent to the original. In contrast, transformations such as translations, rotations, and reflections preserve both size and shape, resulting in congruent images.
The term that describes a transformation that does not change a figure's size or shape is "isometry." Isometric transformations include translations, rotations, and reflections, which maintain the original dimensions and angles of the figure. As a result, the pre-image and image of the transformation are congruent.

A dilation (or scaling) is a transformation that does not always result in an image that is congruent to the original figure. While translations, rotations, and reflections always produce congruent figures, dilations change the size of the figure, which means the image may be similar to, but not congruent with, the original figure.

An isometry is a transformation in which the original figure and its image are congruent. Shape remains constant as size increases.
The transformation process is an 'enlargement'

A figure resulting from a transformation is called an IMAGE
The object and its image are congruent.
It is the image from the transformation.
Figures are congruent if and only if they are related by a translation, reflection, or rotation, or some combination of these transformations.
