This video tutorial explains the concept of exterior angles in polygons, emphasizing that the sum of exterior angles in any convex polygon is 360 degrees. Through examples, it demonstrates how to calculate unknown angles and solve algebraic expressions involving exterior angles in various polygons, including quadrilaterals, hexagons, and decagons. The video also covers how to determine the measure of each exterior angle in regular polygons and how to classify polygons based on given exterior angle measures.
