The video tutorial explains how to prove the equality of two sets using the method of double inclusion. This involves demonstrating that each set is a subset of the other. The tutorial walks through the process step-by-step, starting with proving the first set is a subset of the second, and then vice versa. The video concludes by summarizing the proof and emphasizing the importance of understanding logical statements in set theory.
