The video tutorial explains how to interpret negative angles by considering direction, specifically moving clockwise instead of counterclockwise. It discusses representing π in terms of fourths and how to calculate additional angles by adding π/4. The concept of reference angles is introduced, focusing on measuring the distance from the X-axis. The tutorial uses π/4 as a counting measure to simplify angle calculations.
