The video tutorial explains how to calculate the total area of a pentagonal prism. It begins by defining the components of the prism, including the lateral area and the bases. The tutorial then provides a step-by-step guide to calculating the lateral area using the formula for the area of a rectangle. Next, it explains how to find the area of the pentagonal bases using a specific formula. Finally, the video demonstrates how to sum the lateral and base areas to find the total area of the prism, emphasizing the importance of including units in the final answer.
