Double angle of tangent given a triangle

The video tutorial covers solving a trigonometric problem where a trigonometric function and a constraint are given instead of an angle. The instructor explains how to draw a triangle within specific constraints, apply the Pythagorean theorem, and calculate the tangent of 2 beta. Key points include understanding the secant function, correctly applying positive and negative values, and simplifying expressions.
