The video tutorial explains a geometric theorem stating that if one side of a triangle is longer than another, the angle opposite the longer side is greater. It uses an example triangle to illustrate this concept and then sets up a proof by creating an isosceles triangle. The proof involves using the base angles theorem and substitution to show that the measure of one angle is greater than another. The tutorial concludes by summarizing the proof and its implications.

What does the theorem state about the angles in a triangle when one side is longer than another?

• The angle opposite the longer side is equal.

• The angle opposite the longer side is smaller.

• The angles are unrelated to the side lengths.

• The angle opposite the longer side is greater.
