The video tutorial covers Toles' Theorem, which states that if a segment is a diameter of a circle and a point is on the circle, the angle at that point is a right angle. It explains the theorem as a special case of the Inscribed Angle Theorem, which states that an inscribed angle is half the measure of the central angle subtending the same arc. The video includes an animation demonstrating the theorem and provides a proof using properties of isosceles triangles and the sum of interior angles in a triangle.
