The video tutorial explains how to determine the measure of one exterior angle in regular polygons. It covers the progression from triangles to circles, emphasizing that as the number of sides increases, the shape approaches a circle. The tutorial highlights the sum of interior and exterior angles, showing that the sum of exterior angles in any polygon is 360 degrees. It provides a method to calculate individual exterior angles by dividing 360 by the number of sides. The video concludes with a focus on understanding the formula for exterior angles.
