The video tutorial covers four types of geometric transformations: translation, reflection, dilation, and rotation. It explains how translation involves moving a figure without changing its size or orientation, ensuring congruence between the original and translated figures. Reflection is described as creating a mirror image across a line, with examples of reflections over vertical, horizontal, and diagonal lines. Dilation involves enlarging or reducing a figure with respect to a center point, using a scale factor. The tutorial provides examples and calculations for each transformation type.

What is a transformation in which a geometric figure is moved to another location without any change in size or orientation?
