Create a transformation that is not a similarity transformation. Use coordinate notation .

  (x, y) ⇒ (2x, y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Any rigid transformation or dilation will be a similarity transformation. A transformation that doesn't preserve similarity will be none of those, so may be non-linear or different in one direction than another.

Several possibilities come to mind:

  (x, y) ⇒ (2x, y) . . . . . . stretches x, but not y

  (x, y) ⇒ (x+y, y) . . . . . a "shear" transformation

  (x, y) ⇒ (x, y^(3/2)) . . . . . a non-linear transformation

These only transform one coordinate. Of course, different transforms or combinations can be used on the different coordinates.

The attachment shows the effect of each of these. The red figure is the original icosagon (20-gon). The blue figure shows the horizontal stretch of the first transformation. The green figure shows the diagonal stretch of the shear transformation. The purple figure shows the effect of a non-linear transformation.
