The video tutorial explains how to find the measures of angles X and Y using properties of parallel lines. It covers the concept of corresponding angles to establish that angle Y equals 114 degrees. The tutorial then discusses supplementary angles and linear pairs to show that X + 12 and 114 add up to 180 degrees. Finally, it solves for X, concluding with remarks on grading.
