Answer:
- rotate CCW 90°
- dilate by a factor of 2
Explanation:
First of all, we need to discover the relation Figure B has to Figure A.
Figure B has dimensions that are twice those of Figure A, so a dilation by a scale factor of 2 will be required. The "points" of figure A are on its "south" side, while those of figure B are on its "east" side. Rotation 90° CCW will be involved.
If we consider just these two transformations, we find that they are sufficient to map A to B without any additional translation. Since both transformations use the origin as a reference, their order does not matter.

Rotating figure A by 90° CCW moves the vertex of its "notch" from (2, 2) to (-2, 2). Dilating the rotated fibure by a factor of 2 moves its "notch" vertex to (-4, 4), as shown in Figure B.
A suitable sequence of transformations is ...
- Rotation 90° CCW
- Dilation by a factor of 2 about the origin
These can be done in either order.

The transformations are ...
(x, y) ⇒ (-y, x) . . . . . . rotation 90° CCW
(x, y) ⇒ (2x, 2y) . . . . dilation by a factor of 2
The composition of these transformations is ...
(x, y) ⇒ (-2y, 2x)
