The video tutorial explains how to find the measure of one interior angle in a regular polygon. It emphasizes the importance of regular polygons, where all sides and angles are equal. The tutorial uses examples like squares and rectangles to illustrate the concept. It introduces the formula for calculating the sum of interior angles, which is (n-2) * 180 degrees, where n is the number of sides. The measure of one interior angle is then found by dividing the sum by the number of sides.
