The video tutorial explains the concept of opposite rays, which are two rays sharing the same endpoint and are colinear, forming a line. It further explores linear pairs, which are adjacent angles on a line, and provides examples and nonexamples to illustrate these concepts. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the properties of opposite rays and linear pairs through practical examples.
