The video tutorial explores complex numbers, focusing on proving key properties using algebra and geometry. It begins with an introduction to complex numbers and their representation in polar form. The tutorial then proves that the product of a complex number and its conjugate equals the square of its modulus. It explains why zero is excluded when considering arguments of complex numbers. The video further demonstrates that the argument of a conjugate is the negative of the original argument, using polar form and trigonometric identities. Finally, it provides a visual representation of complex numbers and their conjugates on the complex plane.

What is the primary focus of the complex numbers problem introduced in the video?
