Okay, take a look at diagram 1 (I know it's rubbish I did it on paint :D), this shows all the information you've given in the question. The two coordinates and the distance between them.
Now if we draw additional lines on this diagram, we can make a right-angled triangle (this is on diagram 2). We can also work out the lengths of the additional sides because we know both coordinates at the end-points of the additional lines.
Finally because this is a right-angled triangle, Pythagoras' theorem must apply to its sides meaning
therefore x=5.

1) First find the coordinates of the shape:
G(-1, -2), F(-1, -1), E(2,2), D(2, -2)
2)It asked for dilation of 2 about the origin.
<u><em>*What is dilation?</em></u>
<em>Dilation is the expanding/enlarging a transformation by a scale factor</em>
Now we multiply all the coordinates with the factor of 2
G(-1*2, -2*2) = G'(-2, -4)
F(-1*2, -1*2) = F'(-2, -2)
E(2*2, 2*2) = E'(4, 4)
D(2*2, -2*2) = D'(4, -4)
3) Now plot these points and graph the transformation:
