Reflection and Translation of a Triangle

The video tutorial covers transformations, focusing on reflecting and translating triangles on a graph. Part A involves reflecting triangle S over the line y = X and labeling it as triangle R. The process includes drawing the line, reflecting vertices, and ensuring correct labeling. Part B requires translating triangle S using a vector (-4, -6) to form triangle T, maintaining orientation and labeling. The tutorial emphasizes accuracy in vertex placement and labeling, highlighting common errors in reflection and translation tasks.
