The video tutorial discusses the hinge theorem and its converse in geometry. It begins with an introduction to the hinge theorem, explaining how to apply it by comparing angles between two congruent sides. The tutorial then moves on to the converse hinge theorem, demonstrating how to determine the relationship between angles and side lengths in triangles. The key takeaway is understanding how the size of an angle is related to the length of the opposite side in a triangle.
