Sheri, 5th grader, uses 2 transformation matrices on the dog
The first matrix in red Sheri made up, in red, didn't change the dog and was the matrix that acted as 1 in multiplication. The 2nd matrix, in blue, reflected the dog in the line x=y, producing the inverse!

See Don's book "Changing Shapes With Matrices" and sample problems from this book.
