The video tutorial explains the concept of inscribed angles in geometry, focusing on how to measure arcs using these angles. It highlights the difference between central and inscribed angles, demonstrating that the measure of an arc is double the inscribed angle. The tutorial walks through the calculation of arc WTX, using given angles and properties of circles, and concludes with a final calculation to find the remaining arc measurement.
