Transformations and Coordinates in Geometry

The video tutorial explains how to identify geometric transformations using coordinates. It begins by introducing the concept of transformations and plotting the original figure's coordinates. The tutorial then demonstrates plotting the transformed figure's coordinates and identifies the transformation as a reflection over the Y-axis. Various transformation types, such as translation, rotation, and dilation, are briefly discussed, with the conclusion that the correct transformation is a reflection over the Y-axis.
