The video tutorial explains how polygons can be classified based on the presence or absence of perpendicular lines. It begins with an introduction to the concept of perpendicular lines and their role in forming right angles. The tutorial then focuses on quadrilaterals, highlighting that squares and rectangles have four pairs of perpendicular lines due to their right angles. It contrasts these with rhombuses, pentagons, and hexagons, which lack right angles and thus have no perpendicular lines. The lesson concludes by summarizing the classification of polygons based on these properties.
