Area

The video tutorial introduces the concept of area, explaining it as the space covered by a 2D shape. It demonstrates how to calculate area using square units and provides formulas for various shapes like rectangles, squares, parallelograms, and triangles. The tutorial also covers how to handle complex shapes by breaking them into simpler ones. The video concludes with a recap of the key concepts and encourages viewers to practice calculating area.
