Replacing shutoff valve under bathroom sink
I just replaced the bathroom faucet but ran into a small snag while doing it. The old semi-flexible line from the cold shut off was too short to reach so I ended up attaching the hot supply line to the "cold" faucet and attached the cold supply line to the "hot" faucet and then just swapped the handles to match.
In doing this I ended up with a very small leak and decided that I want to replace the shutoff valves so that I can use the braided flexible lines and put hot and cold on the right sides. The current shutoff valve has a non replaceable permanent connection to the line. I will attach pictures.
My problem is I don't understand what kind of connection I have from the supply line coming from the wall to the current shutoff valve, I think this it's a compression fitting but I haven't done much plumbing before. I want to be sure I get what I need at Home Depot without making another trip with all the water shut off to the house to replace the valves.
