The video tutorial explains how to find the height of a figure using a right triangle. It begins by identifying the triangle's hypotenuse and side lengths, then explores the use of Pythagorean triples to quickly find the missing side. If the triples are not immediately recognized, the Pythagorean theorem is applied to solve for the missing side. The tutorial emphasizes the efficiency of recognizing Pythagorean triples but also validates the use of the theorem for accurate results.
