This study examined how embodied processes in augmented reality (AR) support geometric reasoning by distinguishing among pragmatic, epistemic, and complementary actions. High school students (N=14) reasoned geometry conjectures using GeoGebra-MR. We developed a video coding framework to classify the cognitive functionality of embodied processes. Findings showed that AR manipulations provided cognitive offloading, while gestures coordinated mental operations. Deductive reasoning elicited all action types, whereas inductive reasoning relied mainly on pragmatic and epistemic actions.
