The video tutorial explains how to find a quadratic function with a complex zero of 2i. It highlights that complex zeros come in conjugate pairs, so -2i is also a zero. The tutorial covers how zeros inform the factors of a quadratic function and demonstrates constructing the function using these zeros. It simplifies the function to F(x) = x^2 + 4 and explains that the graph will not intersect the x-axis due to the imaginary nature of the zeros.
