The video tutorial explains how to find the length of the diagonal in a solid. It involves a multi-step process using the Pythagorean theorem. First, the diagonal on the base is calculated by identifying a right triangle and solving for the missing side. Then, this base diagonal is used as a leg in another right triangle to find the diagonal of the solid. The final result is the square root of 181, which is the length of the diagonal.
