The video tutorial explains how to calculate the height and base of a triangle using its area. It begins with a problem where the area and base are given, and the height needs to be calculated. The instructor demonstrates the step-by-step process, emphasizing the formula for the area of a triangle (1/2 * base * height). The tutorial also covers alternative methods for solving the problem without a calculator. In the second part, the instructor solves for the base of a triangle when the area and height are known. The video concludes by relating these calculations to broader geometric concepts, such as the area of rectangles and parallelograms.
