1. The laws of physics are the same in all inertial frames of reference.
2. The speed of light in vacuum has the same value c in all inertial frames of reference.
Lorentz Transformation changes all forms of coordinates first three are space (length, breadth, height) & time (4th dimension).
These are nothing but the equations which allow us to translate from one frame of reference to another so that all the laws of Physics are invariant.
I can't derive here as to explain it it would require more space.(& time too , haha lol)
so, if you want to know more about relativity physics.

Explanation:
THE FUNDAMENTAL POSTULATE OF THEORY OF RELATIVITY IS
▶THE LAWS OF SCIENCE SHOULD BE SAME FOR ALL FREELY MOVING OBSERVERS, NO MATTER WHAT IS THIER SPEED.
THIS WAS TRUE FOR NEWTON'S LAWS LAWS OF MITION, BUT NOW THE IDEA WAS EXTENDED TO INCLUDE MAXWELL'S THEORY AND THE SPEED OF LIGHT.
ALL OBSERVERS SHOULD MEASURE THE SAME SPEED OF LIGHT, NO MATTER HOW FAST THEY ARE MOVING. THIS SIMPLE IDEA HAS SOME REMARKABLE CONSEQUENCES. PERHAPS THE BEST KNOWN WAS THE EQUVALANCE OF MASS AND ENERGY SUMMED UP IN EINSTEIN'S FAMOUS EQUATION E=MC^2 .
