Reflections change the direction, but do not alter shape nor size. Same thing with rotations.

Reflection does not change direction, nor shape, nor size. It just changes the position of the figure.

A dilation can make the figure larger(if the factor is larger than 1), or smaller(factor less than 1).

So a dilation does NOT preserve size and shape.

The answer is:

dilation of scale factor 5.
