The video tutorial covers theorems related to angles formed by secants and tangents. It explains how to calculate the measure of angles formed by secants intersecting inside and outside a circle, as well as angles formed by tangents and secants at the point of tangency. The tutorial provides examples to illustrate each theorem, demonstrating the calculations involved in determining angle measures based on intercepted arcs.
