A figure undergoes a sequence of transformations that results in a figure that is similar but not congruent to the pre-image. Which could be the sequence of transformations?

• A dilation by a scale factor of 3, then a reflection over the y-axis.

• A reflection over the x-axis then a translation of 2 units left and 4 unit down.

• A rotation of 90 degrees clockwise and a reflection across the y-axis

• A translation of 2 units right and 6 units up then a 270 degree rotation.
