The video tutorial explains how to count the number of triangles that can be formed from a set of points, excluding degenerate triangles. It covers the process of forming both non-right and right triangles by dividing the points into groups and using combinations to calculate the possible triangles. The tutorial concludes with a total count of 90 triangles.
