Essential Concepts
- A transformation is a function that transforms a region in one plane (space) into a region in another plane (space) by a change of variables.
- A transformation defined as is said to be a one-to-one transformation if no two points map to the same image point.
- If is continuous on , then
- If is continuous on , then , then
