The video tutorial explains how to determine the amplitude and period of a trigonometric function, specifically y = 1/4 sine of 2π X. It covers the standard form of trigonometric functions and how to calculate amplitude as the absolute value of 'a'. The period is determined by dividing the natural period by the coefficient of X. The tutorial emphasizes understanding these concepts to easily graph the function.
