The video tutorial explains the concept of angles in trigonometry, focusing on the standard position of an angle in the Cartesian plane. It describes how an angle is formed by the rotation of a ray, differentiating between the initial and terminal arms. The tutorial also covers the labeling of quadrants and how angles are measured in degrees, both positively and negatively, depending on the direction of rotation. Key points include the conditions for an angle to be in standard position and the significance of measuring angles in different quadrants.
