Lecture

Translations and Homotheties

Description

This lecture covers the concepts of translations and homotheties, describing geometric transformations using vectors and matrices. It explains how translations and homotheties preserve lengths, surfaces, and volumes, and how to identify fixed points. The lecture also delves into bijective transformations, inverse transformations, and the preservation of geometric properties. Analytical expressions and Cartesian equations are used to illustrate these concepts.
