This video tutorial covers the basics of trigonometry, focusing on the study of triangle measurement. It explains the trigonometric ratios of sine, cosine, and tangent, and introduces the acronym SOHCAHTOA to help remember these ratios. The video includes practice problems to apply these concepts and demonstrates how to use the Pythagorean theorem to find missing sides of triangles. Additionally, it provides guidance on using calculators for trigonometric calculations, ensuring the calculator is set to the correct mode for accurate results.
