Nyssa Thomas introduces the triangle angle sum theorem, explaining that the sum of a triangle's angles is always 180 degrees. She demonstrates solving a problem involving a right triangle. The video also covers the triangle exterior angle theorem, showing how the exterior angle equals the sum of the two remote interior angles. Nyssa solves a problem using this theorem and encourages students to practice with additional problems.
