The video tutorial covers the proof of a theorem stating that a triangle can have at most one obtuse angle. It explains the method of proof by contradiction, where assuming two angles are obtuse leads to a logical inconsistency. The tutorial also demonstrates proving triangle congruence using the Side-Side-Side (SSS) criterion and explores contradictions in angle assumptions, emphasizing the importance of logical reasoning in geometry.

• Three

• Two

• None

• One

What method does Eduardo use to prove the theorem about obtuse angles in a triangle?
