The video tutorial explains the concepts of complementary and supplementary angles. It defines complementary angles as two angles that add up to 90 degrees and supplementary angles as two angles that add up to 180 degrees. The tutorial demonstrates how to solve for unknown angles when one angle is given, using the example of a 98-degree angle. It highlights the limitation that a complement does not exist for angles greater than 90 degrees, as they cannot add up to 90 degrees with another positive angle.
