Answer:

  Rotation 90° CW and dilation by a factor of 2 (in either order)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point B has moved from the y-axis to point S on the x-axis. Its coordinate value has increased by a factor of 2. The transformation that does that is ...

  • rotation 90° CW about the origin
  • dilation by a factor of 2 about the origin

These transformations can occur in either order.

__

In the attached, the rotation is shown first, with the purple triangle being a 90° CW rotation of the red triangle (∆ABC). The blue triangle (∆RST) is a dilation of the purple one by a factor of 2.
