This video tutorial explains how to find the missing angle of a triangle using basic properties of triangles. It covers the interior angle sum theorem, which states that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, and demonstrates how to use this theorem to find a missing angle. The video also discusses properties of isosceles triangles, showing how to calculate unknown angles when two sides are equal. The tutorial aims to provide foundational knowledge that can be applied to more complex problems.
