The video explains that the angles on one side of a straight line always add up to 180 degrees. It demonstrates how to find the unknown angle when one angle is known, using examples with angles of 40 and 80 degrees. The method is extended to multiple angles on one side of a line, with a detailed example involving angle B. The video concludes by summarizing that the sum of angles on one side of a line is always 180 degrees.
