The video tutorial explains how to calculate the area of irregular shapes using two methods: the grid method and Pick's Theorem. The grid method involves drawing a grid over the shape, coloring complete and partial squares, and using a formula to calculate the area. Pick's Theorem provides an alternative approach using inner and boundary points. The tutorial concludes with a preview of the next video on calculating the area of triangles.
