The video tutorial explains the practical application of the midpoint theorem in geometry. It begins with a real-life problem of hanging an LED light at the center of a building, ensuring it is parallel to the base. The solution involves using the midpoint theorem, which states that a line segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half its length. The video provides a detailed proof of the theorem using congruency and demonstrates its application to various types of triangles.
