The video tutorial introduces trigonometry, focusing on its application in measuring heights and distances using right angle triangles. It explains the properties of right angle triangles and demonstrates how to use sine, cosine, and tangent to solve problems involving kites. The tutorial also covers trigonometric ratios and the mnemonic SOHCAHTOA, providing a foundation for understanding and applying these concepts in practical scenarios.
