This video tutorial teaches how to find the measure of an acute angle in a right triangle using the inverse sine function. It begins with an introduction to trigonometric ratios, using the mnemonic 'sohcatoa' to explain sine, cosine, and tangent. The video then covers inverse trigonometric functions, explaining their notations and how they reverse the original functions. A practical example is provided to find angle A using the inverse sine function, followed by solving the entire triangle, including finding all side lengths and angles.
