The video tutorial explains how the hands of a clock can help understand angles and their measurements. It covers the concept of full and half rotations, equating them to 360 and 180 degrees, respectively. By examining different times on a clock, the tutorial demonstrates how to identify angles such as 90 and 270 degrees. It also addresses common misunderstandings about angles, emphasizing that the size of the rays or circle does not affect the angle measurement. The lesson concludes by reinforcing the understanding of angles formed by quarter and three-quarter turns.
