The video tutorial explains how to write the equation of a quadratic in vertex form using given information. It covers the importance of understanding vertex and standard forms, how to identify and use the vertex (H, K) and points (X, Y) in the equations, and the process of solving for 'a'. The tutorial also touches on the concept of slope in quadratic equations, emphasizing that the slope is not constant. Finally, it demonstrates how to simplify the equation to its final form.
