The video tutorial covers the third angle theorem, explaining that if two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, the third angles are also congruent. It emphasizes that congruent angles do not imply congruent triangles, but rather similar triangles. The video includes a proof of the theorem, applications, and solving algebraic equations related to triangle angles.
