The video tutorial explains the concept of the angle of inclination, focusing on how to identify and describe it verbally. It introduces theta as the angle between a line segment and the positive x-axis. The tutorial covers methods to calculate this angle using trigonometry, specifically focusing on the tangent function and its inverse. It also provides guidance on using a calculator to find the angle in degrees, emphasizing the importance of ensuring the calculator is set to the correct mode.
