The video tutorial explains how to find the measure of a missing angle in a triangle. It begins by stating the sum of interior angles in a triangle is 180°. The tutorial demonstrates using an exterior angle to find an interior angle, highlighting the concept of supplementary angles. It then sets up an equation to solve for the missing angle, resulting in a measure of 22°. The explanation is clear and step-by-step, ensuring understanding of the geometric principles involved.
