The video tutorial explains that the interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees. It demonstrates how to find a missing angle in a triangle using this principle through two examples. In the first example, a triangle with angles of 90 and 45 degrees is used to find the missing angle, which is 45 degrees. In the second example, a triangle with angles of 56 and 38 degrees is used to find the missing angle, which is 86 degrees. The video concludes with a call to action to subscribe for more math and science content.
