The video tutorial by Mr. Banker explores trigonometric functions of any angle, extending beyond triangles to include all angles. It introduces the concept of angles in trigonometry using initial and terminal sides, and explains how to plot angles in standard position on a coordinate grid. The tutorial covers coterminal angles, showing how to calculate them in both degrees and radians, and provides examples to illustrate these concepts.
