The video tutorial explains how to calculate the distance between two points on a coordinate plane using the Pythagorean theorem. It begins with an introduction to the concept, followed by a detailed example of finding the distance between two points. The tutorial then explains the distance formula, showing its derivation from the Pythagorean theorem. Finally, another example is provided to reinforce the concept, concluding with a summary of the key points.
