The video tutorial explains how to calculate the sum of exterior angles in different polygons, including squares, triangles, and octagons. It begins with a discussion on the properties of exterior angles and their relationship with interior angles, emphasizing the concept of supplementary angles. The tutorial demonstrates calculations for a square and an equilateral triangle, showing that the sum of exterior angles is always 360 degrees. It concludes with a detailed example of an octagon, reinforcing the consistent sum of exterior angles across polygons.
