The video tutorial explains how to use the vertex form of a quadratic equation to find the equation of a parabola given a vertex and a point. It covers identifying the vertex as coordinates H and K, and a point as X and Y. The instructor demonstrates plugging these values into the vertex form equation, simplifying it, and solving for the variable 'a'. The final equation is derived for any point on the parabola, emphasizing the importance of understanding the vertex form and its components.
