Answer: An image is dilated and reflected.

Explanation:

We know that rigid transformations which is also known as isometry are the transformations which does not affect the size of the shape. It preserves both the side lengths and the angle measures of a polygon.

It always produces congruent images.

There are four rigid transformations: reflections, rotations, translations and glide reflection.

On the other hand dilation is not a rigid transformation, it produces similar images but not produce congruent images if the value of scale factor is other than 1.

Thus, the "An image is dilated and reflected" is a sequence of transformations will result in similar, but not congruent, figures.
