The video tutorial covers the concepts of tangents, secants, chords, and arcs in geometry. It introduces theorems related to the intersection of tangents and chords on a circle, as well as tangents and secants intersecting outside a circle. The tutorial explains how to calculate angles formed by these intersections using the intercepted arcs. It also includes examples and algebraic problems to illustrate these concepts.
