The video tutorial guides viewers through the process of drawing a right triangle on a graph. It begins by identifying the vertices of the triangle, which are given as coordinates. The tutorial then demonstrates how to plot these points on the graph and connect them to form the triangle. The process is straightforward, requiring only the plotting of three points and connecting them in any order. The tutorial concludes by verifying the right angle and completing the triangle.
