The video tutorial explains how to plot a complex number on the complex plane and determine its absolute value. It introduces the concept of absolute value as the distance from the origin and demonstrates how to calculate it using the Pythagorean theorem. The tutorial also provides an algebraic method for finding the absolute value by squaring the real and imaginary parts, summing them, and taking the square root.
