The video tutorial covers the calculation of the volume of composite objects, specifically focusing on a building with a rectangular base and a triangular roof. The teacher explains the dimensions of the building in centimeters and discusses two methods for converting these measurements to cubic meters. The tutorial demonstrates how to calculate the volume of both rectangular and triangular prisms using specific formulas, and then combines these volumes to find the total volume of the composite object. Finally, the teacher converts the total volume from centimeters cubed to meters cubed, emphasizing the importance of using the correct conversion rate for volume.
