The video tutorial explains how to evaluate a surface integral over a specific part of a cone defined by z^2 = x^2 + y^2, bounded between z = 2 and z = 3. It covers the projection of the surface onto the xy-plane, defining the region R, and calculating the integral using partial derivatives. The tutorial simplifies the integral using polar coordinates and provides a step-by-step calculation, concluding with the exact value of the surface integral.
