The video tutorial explains how to find a missing angle in a triangle using the triangle sum theorem. It begins by setting up the equation that the sum of the internal angles equals 180 degrees. The tutorial then demonstrates substituting given values into the equation and solving for the variable x. Finally, it calculates the measure of each angle in the triangle using the solved value of x.

If angle A is 2x, angle B is 2x + 10, and angle C is 94 degrees, what is the general equation for the sum of the angles?

2x + 2x + 10 + 94 = 360

2x + 2x + 10 + 94 = 90

2x + 2x + 10 + 94 = 180

2x + 2x + 10 + 94 = 270

After combining like terms, what is the resulting equation before solving for x?

4x - 104 = 360

4x + 104 = 360

4x - 104 = 180

4x + 104 = 180
