The video tutorial explains the restrictions on angles for tangent and sine, emphasizing the importance of staying within these limits. It then explores the cosine of π, identifying its position on the unit circle. The tutorial continues by finding the angle for the tangent inverse of -1, using reflections and coordinate points to determine the correct angle within the constraints of -π/2 to π/2.
