What happens if you enlarge a shape by a negative scale factor but multiply each of the original distances from vertex to centre by your negative scale factor?

If you enlarge a shape by a negative scale factor, the shape not only changes size but also reflects across the center point (the origin). Multiplying each original distance from a vertex to the center by a negative scale factor effectively inverts the position of each vertex relative to the center, resulting in a shape that is both enlarged and flipped. This transformation can lead to a shape that occupies a different quadrant or orientation in the coordinate system.
